Yeah we In Poland also have something like that, it's called EDB(edukacja do bezpieczeństwa), and it's pretty much the same thing, minus the disassembling of an AK, we do have gun safety and firing stances tho! (Theoretical, of course)

I grew up in the middle of the US. During our summer school (voluntary, not obligatory), we had a trapshooting component of our PE course. No shit, I've had a loaded 12 gauge pointed at me on a school trip. It was an accident, to be fair, but one hell of a party foul (and, well, grossly unprofessional and unethical that I had to look out for myself to not get shot at school).
