blow on the fire to put it out
If there were a fire in the lab put it out with salt. If it is a big fire get on the ground and crawl to the exit.
If a fire starts in a school lab, the first action a student should take is to activate the nearest fire alarm to alert others in the building. After that, they should safely evacuate the area and follow the school's fire evacuation plan, ensuring they report the fire to a teacher or staff member if possible. It's crucial to avoid attempting to extinguish the fire unless it's small and manageable, and only if the student has been trained to do so safely.
You should LEAVE. Keeping your exit open in case the fire can not be controlled - find and use a fire extinguisher - give the alarm !
I think that people should put their blazers up in a lab incase it catches fire.
For even running the possibility of contaminating or cross-contaminating evidence that is being handled or may be handled at that lab I would recommend a one week suspension without pay for a first offense.
If there is a fire in the laboratory, immediately sound the fire alarm, evacuate the area following the established evacuation procedures, and call emergency services. In the meantime, if it is safe to do so, you can attempt to use a fire extinguisher to contain the fire following the manufacturer's instructions and without putting yourself at risk.
fire exit !
If it is a big fire don't try to do any thing, run outside and save your skin. The lab owner or the management will take care of the damages! In a chem lab there are many highly flammable lab reagents like ethyl alcohol, bleach etc. If the fire is small and easily manageable, try to put out the fire using a fire extinguisher or sand etc. dont try to put out the fire with water because chemicals such as sodium react with water.
There are a few types of safety precautions when working in a lab. For instance, there should be an eye-wash station in case chemicals get in the eyes. There should be gloves available to use, along with goggles, and protective clothing. The lab should also contain a fire-extinguisher.

A fire extinguisher should be used to put out a fire safely in a laboratory. It is essential to know the type of fire extinguisher suitable for the specific type of fire, such as Class A, B, or C fires, to effectively extinguish the flames.
