Abstract

This study focused on assessing the safety measures practiced during educational tours in promoting safe learning experiences among Tourism students in Quezon City. It aimed to evaluate students’ perceptions in four key areas: perceived risk and safety awareness, adherence to safety protocols, confidence in handling emergencies, and the perceived effectiveness of the school’s safety policy. By examining these areas, the research intended to identify existing gaps and provide recommendations for improving safety management in future excursions. A quantitative research design was used in the study. Data were gathered through a survey questionnaire that utilized a four-point Likert scale to determine the level of agreement among respondents regarding different aspects of safety management. The findings indicate that both students and coordinators exhibit a commendable level of awareness and adherence to safety measures. However, differences in perception can be attributed to variations in experience, exposure, and responsibilities. Tour Coordinators tend to view safety practices as effective because of their direct involvement in planning and supervision, whereas students rely mainly on observation and experience during the tour. This gap highlights the necessity for institutions to provide inclusive safety orientations, practical emergency frills, and consistent communication systems. The overall outcome of confirmed safety measures in educational tours depends not only on the presence of policies but also on the shared understanding, preparedness, and cooperation of all participants involved. It assesses safety measures implemented during educational tours to promote safe learning management practices, institutional policies, and student awareness to develop effective school guidelines that ensure secure, meaningful, and well-supervised excursion experiences.
