Mission statement
Streetwise works nationally with Jewish schools and Community organisation, enhancing the personal safety and personal development of young Jewish people to support their physical and emotional wellbeing. We are a partnership project between Maccabi GB and CST. Streetwise delivers Personal Development, Personal Safety and Relationships and Sex Education to Primary and Secondary schools, Community Organisations and Youth Movements.
At Streetwise – a partnership project between Maccabi GB and CST - we strive to equip the young people in our community with the knowledge and confidence to keep themselves safe and better protected. As such, we are dedicated to support you and your students in the coming days and weeks to develop their personal safety skills.
We know from previous conflicts in Israel, that spikes in antisemitic hate crime incidents take place here at home and often affect young people and school settings. We aim to educate and give young people the correct tools and skills to be safer and know what to do if they come across antisemitism of any kind, both on and offline.
As such we will be offering every Jewish primary and secondary school in the country a range of assemblies and classroom sessions, focusing on personal safety, street awareness and how to report antisemitism. We would kindly advise whole-school assemblies for primary schools and year-group assemblies for secondary schools. These sessions will not include political content.
