Özet: To help reduce the number of road injuries and fatalities, several road safety education activities are organised by schools. However, their effectiveness has not been researched sufficiently at the national level. The aim of this work was therefore to assess the circumstances in which these activities are organised and to determine the extent to which they contribute to the development of students' knowledge of road safety. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire that was delivered to the directors of 105 schools in the Daraa-Tafilalet Regional Academy. The "pre-test/post-test" method was used to study the impact of a road safety education activity on students' knowledge. The results of this study reveal that schools are limited to commemorating national safe driving day. School directors ensure the participation of all students and the involvement of actors such as national security and the royal gendarmerie. As for civil society associations, their involvement remains insufficient. The training of educational actors in the conduct of road safety workshops, the involvement of parents and the adoption of interactive strategies centred on the pupil are means likely to develop pupils' knowledge and behaviour.
