‘Gym class’ does not just mean participating in mandatory sport activities, it also includes education about physical activity. If not in physical education class, where would students learn about the positive effects of lifelong physical fitness, healthy nutrition, stress control, and how to modify or reduce certain ''risk factors''?

This does not just mean safe in physical terms but also psychologically and emotionally. A health and safety risk assessment can be carried out on the classroom or area where the training will take place to ensure that it doesn’t pose any physical risk, such as trip or electrical hazards. The trainer/teacher should also consider the temperature of the area where the learners are expected to work ensuring it is comfortable for example opening a window after the lunch break could help everyone to wake up and pay attention – from experience afternoon sessions can be difficult to concentrate in!! Consideration should also be given to the layout of the classroom in terms of seating arrangements, for example traditional class room layouts may not allow collaborative working. The classroom should always be clean and well lit – it pays to check prior to the class starting and may mean you have to arrive a bit earlier if you have not used the room before however you may not always be able to control these
If the teachers didn’t care about their education, how would you expect students to stay in school when the teachers don’t care whether they attend or not.
