Road deaths are the biggest ‘accidental’ cause of death of children and young people. All kids and young people use roads and have experienced road danger; so it's the perfect topic for a project that can really engage them as well as save their lives, while also meeting curriculum goals. Road Safety Week is the ideal time to do it!

So help stop the carnage by joining thousands of educators signing up to run a road safety project in their institutions in Road Safety Week, and we'll stay in touch with you along the way, helping you to run a great event.

To get your online action pack of tips, ideas and downloadable resources to use during the Week, register today!

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Talk about road safety in your assemblies.
• Hold a special road safety assembly or open event for parents.
• Run a Beep Beep! Day for under-eights.
• Make a road safety display in the school. Find out more about free and low-cost resources available from Brake.
• Mention Road Safety Week / promote road safety in your newsletter to parents.
• Send a special flyer/newsletter to parents about road safety.
• Challenge the children to create a road safety poster/leaflet/banner/film/play. Find out more about the 2young2die awards for young people.
• Have a special PSHE or citizenship lesson on road safety.
• Integrate road safety learning into curriculum lessons, eg. drama, geography. For more information on bringing road safety into the classroom visit our Teacher Zone.
• Engage local media in a campaign about road safety.
• Have a special guest in to talk about road safety, for example, a police officer, or drama group.
• Fundraise by running a Bright Day for Brake (when everyone turns up wearing something bright in return for a donation!)
