Primary
Streetwise works nationally with Jewish primary schools to support the personal safety and personal development of young Jewish people, and to build their physical and emotional wellbeing. Our building blocks approach allows us to offer early support and guidance, empowering young people to develop core skills and knowledge as they move from childhood into adolescence.
Our primary programmes fall into five key areas of work: Anti-Bullying, Online Safety, Personal Safety, Transition into Secondary School and Racial Bullying & Antisemitism. Through these topics, Streetwise supports and empowers young people in a safe, informal environment - giving them the skills, knowledge and confidence to make positive, informed decisions.

Anti-bullying
Our Anti-bullying sessions increase students’ understanding of what bullying is, including the different forms it can take and the impact it can have on individuals and the wider school community. Workshops provide students with the practical strategies to respond to bullying safely, and promote a culture of kindness, respect, and inclusion.
Members of the Anti-bullying Alliance (ABA), our anti-bullying workshops are typically delivered during or around Anti-bullying Week, a campaign that takes places yearly in November.
Building year-on-year, sessions encourage students to understand how everyone can play a part in combating bullying behaviour at school and who students can speak to if they or a friend are experiencing bullying.
Online Safety
Helping young people stay safe, informed and confident in an ever-changing digital world.
Our online safety workshops help students understand what it means to be safe online, while building the digital literacy and critical thinking skills to navigate the online world with confidence. Students explore how to make informed choices, protect their personal information, recognise potential risks, and develop healthy, balanced digital habits.
Supported by the UK Safer Internet Centre, our sessions are delivered in line with Safer Internet Day each February and updated annually to reflect the latest trends and challenges young people face online, such as online gaming and group chats.
Sessions cover topics including online scams, artificial intelligence (AI), gaming, and maintaining a healthy relationship with technology. Through discussion, activities and real-life scenarios, students learn to think critically about what they see online, question whether information is reliable, and consider the impact of their digital choices — both on others and in the future.
Workshops equip students to:
-
Protect their personal information when using digital platforms
-
Recognise and respond to online risks, including scams and misleading or harmful content
-
Question, evaluate and make informed decisions about what they encounter online
-
Understand emerging technologies such as AI and how to use them safely and responsibly
-
Develop healthy, balanced online habits while recognising the positive opportunities technology and gaming can offer
-
Build the confidence to navigate online situations and know when and how to seek help
Our work empowers young people to enjoy the benefits of the digital world while staying safe, thoughtful and confident online.
Personal Safety
As children gain more independence, it's important to equip them with the confidence, resilience and awareness needed to make safe decisions. Our Road Safety workshop supports children in increasing their awareness to recognise and mitigate potential risks by making informed choices as they become more independent. We run Road Safety workshops specifically for students in Year 4.
The aims of this programme are for pupils to:
-
Understand the importance of road safety.
-
Recognise common hazards when walking near roads
-
Develop awareness of distractions (e.g. mobile phones, headphones, talking with friends) when near roads.
-
Understand how to stay safe as pedestrians, cyclists and passengers in vehicles.
We are also able to offer Krav Maga training courses to students in Year 6, delivered by CST instructors. These sessions can be offered as lunchtime or after-school sessions, during enrichment periods, or within PE lessons.
Anti-racial Bullying and Antisemitism
As children grow and develop their understanding of the world around them, it is important to foster empathy, respect and inclusion. The Racial Bullying & Antisemitism workshop builds on our Anti-Bullying programme, providing a safe and engaging space for pupils to explore the impact of prejudice and discrimination, challenge stereotypes, and develop the confidence to stand up against bullying. Through discussion and interactive activities, children are introduced to antisemitism education and encouraged to consider their own position and identity as Jewish students.
This programme will:
-
Increase their understanding of racism, antisemitism and other forms of prejudice and discrimination
-
Promote respect, empathy and appreciation for diversity within the school and wider community
-
Recognise the impact that bullying, discrimination and hateful language can have on individuals and communities
-
Challenge stereotypes, misconceptions and prejudice in a safe, age-appropriate way
Transition to Secondary
Starting secondary school is an exciting milestone, but it can also bring new challenges and responsibilities. Streetwise's Transition to Secondary workshop helps pupils prepare for the move by exploring the key differences between primary and secondary school, building confidence and independence, and developing practical skills such as travelling safely on public transport. Through interactive activities and discussion, pupils are encouraged to embrace change, manage new responsibilities, and make a positive start to the next stage of their education.
This programme will:
Enable students to uderstand the key differences between primary and secondary school
Build confidence, resilience and independence in managing new routines and expectations
Develop practical skills for travelling safely and confidently on public transport
Develop a sense of responsibility for their organisation, time management and personal belongings
Promote personal safety and responsible decision-making, both in and out of school
