Answer 1

$('.select .classCheckBox label').each(function() {
  $(this).insertBefore( $(this).prev('input') );
});

A little explain

• $('.select .classCheckBox label') select each label within each .classCheckBox

• $(this) within loop point to label

• .insertBefore() insert any element before the matched element that passed as argument

• $(this).prev('input') points the input before label

• so, $(this).insertBefore( $(this).prev('input') ) will insert each label before its previous input

  $(this).insertAfter( $(this).next('label') );
});
