Thus, denoting the important role of the school in the operationalization of self-protection measures through the practice of simulacrum. With regard to the knowledge revealed by the respondents about the risks contained in the emergency plan of the school or the plan of emergency and civil protection of Seixal, the vast majority claims to not know the risks present in both plans.
