Tragic events occur worldwide from time to time and sometimes school students and the staff are the victims.Disasters are sudden physical events requiring external assistance to save lives and recover from destruction.Perceptible surprise, drama, and immediacy of disasters, not number of lives lost, are taken into consideration (1).On the other hand, without the people there is no disaster. Among school-related disasters, the crash of a bus carrying school students in October 2012 in Chahar Mahal Bakhtiari (Iran), school fire in December 2012 in Piranshahr(Iran), South Korea ferry tragic event in April 2014, and Peshawar schoolmassacre in December 2014 arejust some instances.
