The training focused on updating professional knowledge and guiding teachers in developing physical education lesson plans in line with the 2018 General Education Program. It also introduced new teaching methods suited to the physical and psychological development of primary school students. Teachers were also guided in designing physical activities to improve fitness, develop motor skills and ensure students' safety during their studies.
The safe swimming and drowning prevention sessions aimed to strengthen teachers' ability to organise swimming lessons and equip them with the knowledge and skills needed to keep primary school students safe in the water. Under the Safe Swimming Programme issued by the Ministry of Education and Training, students are taught to become familiar with the water, practise breathing and floating, and learn basic swimming techniques. They also develop survival skills, learn to recognise drowning risks and how to protect themselves in dangerous situations.
Following the training, participating schools will share and apply the knowledge and skills gained, helping improve the quality of physical education while strengthening safety measures and preventing drowning accidents among students.
