BRAVE Workshops


As part of Anti-Bullying week, we were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with Brave (BUILDING RESILIENCE AGAINST VIOLENCE & EXTREMISM) today. All the children in Year 5 and 6 had the opportunity to take part in a 90 minute Workshop with Cairo and Jordan who run the programme.




Brave is a  programme run by the St. Giles trust (https://www.stgilestrust.org.uk/brave/) who work with Local Authorities to help children and young people have greater awareness of the realities and issues surrounding gang involvement, drugs, violence, extremism and radicalisation, and learn about strategies and signposting to help avoid the risk of becoming involved in these activities.
The children learnt  how perpetrators recruit young people, including online, social media & through gaming, and what they can do when they are out in the community to stay safe.
