Road safety Key Stages AS/A2

No more lives Wasted

Fact - Young drivers (aged 17-24) account for 38% of all reported injury collisions in Nottinghamshire.

The "Wasted" session is aimed at both potential and actual young drivers.

The session will fit in to Citizenship and help with information and practical skills required as a road user.

Session Information

• time - 50 minutes to an hour
• cost - none
• number of students - between 10 and 30
• requirements from school - classroom and whiteboard/surface on which to project

The lesson is interactive using an EZ-Click system that enables the students to take an active part in the lesson. We aim to get their opinions as road users and stimulate discussion. The lesson will challenge pre-conceived ideas and some of the statistics will undoubtedly surprise them.

The lesson will give the students a chance to test out their hazard perception skills in a practical section of the lesson, similar to the one now required in their driving test.
