| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to investigate the
relationship between risk management and relevant safety
practices of school administrators of 28 primary and
secondary schools in the town of Sungai Siput (U), Perak.

A questionnaire was developed to measure the relevant safety practices of the school administrator and its measurement is known as Risk Management Practice. The study conducted show that 64.28 percent of the school administrators carried out regularly risk management practices in their respective schools.
