7Yrs - 11Yrs Cool
we're good!
Bullying can start
at a very young age,
and can cause
children to fear
others both in and
out of school
throughout their
educational careers
and sometimes for
the rest of their
life. We encourage
children to learn to
accept and
appreciate their
differences, thus
undermining initial
flashpoints for
bullying.
Through drama and
learning games,
appropriate to age
and ability, we look
at self-esteem and
the range of
behaviour associated
with, or leading to,
bullying. Through
the shared
experience, children
see and feel the
challenges and woes
of the victim, begin
to understand the
motives of the
perpetrator, and
learn what to do if
they are the witness
to bullying.
This workshop -
modified
appropriately for
each year - is often
booked for delivery
over a week to a
whole school.
However, it is very
effective even when
delivered to a
single year, or for
that matter, to
selected classes. As
with most of our
workshops, we can
deliver two / three
workshop sessions
per team / day,
maximum
approximately thirty
in a class / group.
11Yrs + Oi You!
This workshop, which
begins with a very
dramatic monologue
that focuses
attention on
bullying and related
issues, explores
'gang culture', and
the carrying of
knives and other
weapons.
Lively and
purposeful responses
are stimulated, in a
safe context,
allowing even those
who feel threatened
by the concept of
gang culture to
voice their
feelings. Issues
raised and their
context in pupikls'
lives are explored
further through
drama and small
group discussions
are fed-back and
shared. When racism
or other
discriminatory
bullying is a
particular concern,
this topic can be
explicitly expanded
upon within the
workshop.
11Yrs + It's your
body!
This interactive
workshop focuses on
making safe and
sensible decisions
and taking
responsibility for
one's own life. We
all face important
decisions and have
to make - affecting
choices relating to
smoking, alcohol and
drugs. Myths and
misconceptions
regarding the
effects and the
short and longer
term consequences of
alcohol misuse and
drug abuse are
explored and
corrected through
drama and
discussion, often in
small groups. The
comparative emphasis
between alcohol and
other drugs is
agreed beforehand
with school staff.
11Yrs + Making Out
Wepick
up where most PSHE
sex education
programmes leave
off, and look at sex
in the context of
relationships,
considering how
these are shaped and
how they shape us.
Through group
discussion and role
play, we school down
myths about the
expectations we have
of each other when
it comes to building
relationships, and
students learn how
to make informed
choices that will
affect all of their
futures.
11Yrs + Knife's Edge
There are more than
60,000 knife-related
offences each year.
This alarming
statistic highlights
the need to take a
firm stance against
knife crime. Through
role-play and
interactive
exercises, we show
how we can feel safe
and keep safe by
demonstrating good
and bad ways of
resolving conflict.
