First Drop Down Day
Learners had their first drop down day on 21st October 2025. Learners were stood down from their normal timetabled lessons to take part in 4 sessions throughout the day.
The 4 sessions were as follows:
- Understanding Radicalisation and Extremism- Introduction to key concepts and influences.
- The Prevent Strategies: Aims and Approaches- Radicalisation, Prevent and British Values.
- British Values: Principles and Application- Exploring the Core Values Shaping Modern Britain.
- Combating Radicalisation: Building Resilience and Inclusivity- Empowering Young People to Create Safe, Inclusive Communities.
Learners throughout the day showed competence and enthusiasm about the sessions, especially the Construction group. They were engaged watching the videos and going through, they had open discussions, and they learnt a lot throughout the day.
It was great to see and it was a great success!
