Welcome to the NEW resource centre from the Road Safety Partnership.
We’ve crammed this area full of useful, tried and tested educational materials. We’ve organised it in broad age groups, and within each age group is suggested lesson plan content, worksheets to download, resources to borrow from us, and sources of further advice.
These age groups can still receive visits in-school from varied groups, including: by Road Safety Cycle Instructors, Police Community Safety Team Officers and Fire & Rescue staff.
Behind each photo, below, you will discover detailed information which is suitable for use whether you are a teacher, a carer, a youth worker, a community activist, a parent, grandparent, student or friend! Click on the age group you are interested in
 Pre-school Ages 0 – 4 years old
At this age, children need total protection when walking near roads and travelling in cars. This is the perfect time to learn their first road safety lessons.

Walking or cycling with your child will give them loads of experience and learning opportunities. So, share with them what you know and how you use the road.

Secondary & Colleges
Keep talking to your child as they grow and get closer to one of the riskiest times in their lives, the teenage years.
|
Our own research into road traffic collisions tells us that risk increases for certain ages by class of road user. Take a look at our casualty charts, there are five: pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, car passengers and car drivers, and see for yourself who is at risk.
This section will develop further over the coming months so should you spot something which doesn’t make sense or belongs somewhere else, or if you can’t find the things you need, please do contact us. As always, we value your feedback. And why not send us examples of your road safety work, as well as your comments, and we’ll include them on our gallery.
