CHECK LIST FOR SCHOOLS
To determine whether our 'You Don't Know Who You're Dealing With!' anti crime or 'That'll Never Happen To Me!' STD awareness workshops are or are not suitable for your school, please refer to the Check List below :
Workshop content is suitable for Year 5 students and above although we do suggest that your school may wish to seek parental permission before the workshop takes place. See next point.
To maximise the impact of our workshop, there are some relatively graphic slides towards the end of the presentation. These slides will only be shown once they have been viewed IN ADVANCE by at least two senior members of your staff. You can opt to have all, some or none of the slides or the edited versions -whichever you choose, YOUR decision will be accepted by us without question.
If you have any hearing-impaired students, please let us know via the Venue Questionnaire in order that we can accommodate their needs on the day of your workshop. Our presenter is pleased to wear a loop device or any other hearing improvement equipment which your school may have and, bearing in mind that the workshop is a Powerpoint presentation, will ensure that signers and students are placed in a well lit area.

Workshops MUST take place in a seated venue. We will NOT deliver workshops to students where they have to sit on the floor, regardless of age. We focus on self worth and self esteem and it is difficult to convey this to students whilst they are sitting on the floor. Please take this point into consideration when making your booking since we do not wish to disappoint your students and young people by leaving shortly after our arrival.
Workshops start at 11:00am at the earliest to avoid our having to travel in rush hour traffic. We shall arrive at your school around one hour in advance of the workshop's start time so it is essential that the venue is clear at least 45 minutes in advance of the start in order that we can set up our equipment.
Workshop running time is 80 to 90 minutes for crime and 45 to 50 minutes for STDs so we strongly suggest that a double period is made available for the crime workshop to avoid rushing both the students and the content. This also enables adequate time for Questions and Answers following the presentation itself.
Ideal workshop times are the last period[s] before lunch and/or the last period[s] of the day in order that pupils have time to reflect on and discuss what they have both seen and heard.
We strongly suggest that a Citizenship period follows soon after our workshops, again in order that your students can discuss what they have seen and heard amongst each other and to share the impact which it may or may not have made upon them.
Where fees are payable for the workshop, your school will only be invoiced after the workshop and only on the basis that your students and your staff were satisfied with the content, impact and delivery of the session. With our 'No Risk' fee charging policy, if you are not satisfied with our workshop for any reason, we shall not invoice you and you will receive no further contact from us, now or in the future.
