This programme helps children to stay safe in their relationships with others both on and off line. The programme builds on established tools e.g. The Underwear Rule and Personal Networks, and gradually uses these to explore different issues or situations where children may feel unsafe and need support.
The programme uses age-appropriate drama and a trauma-informed approach to help children feel safe and confident. It builds on what schools already teach, bringing lessons to life through real-world issues like domestic abuse, sexual abuse, knife crime and child exploitation. Sessions create a calm, sensitive and supportive space where children can explore what to do if they or someone they know needs help.
