Road safety for young people
Years 5 and 6
We have collaborated with students from The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama to develop an online interactive resource suitable for pupils in Years 5 and 6.
Our online resource for primary school children is available to download for free on the London Road Safety Council website.
Children can choose their own destiny in a series of 4 short audio dramas. Key messages covered include:
- safer crossing
- distractions
- visibility
- car passenger safety
Years 6 and 7
Pupils in Year 6 and 7 are targeted to receive road safety education, usually in the form of engaging theatre-in-education.
It’s a Jungle Out There!
Barnet joined forces with The London Road Safety Council to launch a road safety campaign which was initially aimed at Year 6 children and their parents/carers and teachers.
The campaign particularly focuses on those 11 and 12-year-olds who may be preparing to commute to and from a new school solo for the first ever time.

Look out! Be seen! Be safe!
Barnet have teamed up with the London Road Safety Council to create a road safety campaign aimed at motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians.
The campaign has six short films testing viewers on their road safety awareness. The films highlight key winter road safety messages and can be viewed here:
