Brake Road Safety Week Speed Lesson Resource For Schools

The resource is designed to teach children about speed, specifically that it is not possible for children to judge the speed of approaching vehicles. The main messages are that younger children should hold hands and cross roads with an adult and older children should wait on the pavement until the road is clear and safe to cross. There is a PowerPoint which has a voice over for each slide (see links below). Also attached is a script / teacher notes to accompany the PowerPoint with information for each slide so that you can deliver the assembly easily.
