Prison Me No Way day is an event we always look forward to in school.

As part of our work on Personal Social Health Education (PSHE), we had visitors in school from the Fire Service, Ambulance Service, Red Cross, Police, CEOP (Child Exploitation and Online Protection centre), the Prison Service and other organisations for a Crime and Safety Awareness day. The aims of the day were to raise awareness among young people of the consequences of crime, and discouraging young people from making a mistake that could affect their adult lives. Workshops this year included Prison Life, Drugs, Knife Crime and Making the Right Choices. Students also had the chance to experience what the inside of a prison cell looks like, forcibly bringing home the message that actions have consequences. This event for Year 8 and 9 students has been run in school for the past 12 years and it has been hugely successful and valuable. The event is organised by the No Way Trust.
