SafetySmart for Schools and Colleges
Prepare the Mind. Shape Their Journey
Transitioning into further education, training, apprenticeships, work experience, or work is a major step. Mental readiness is essential to navigate change confidently and develop the skills and mindset that is needed to move forward.
This is where their journey begins and where their abilities take shape
Learning Through Play
SafetySmart is delivered through a larger-than-life board game, turning learning into a fun, engaging, and accessible experience. The game allows learners to explore real-life workplace situations in a safe, supportive way, while naturally embedding essential Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) awareness.
This practical, interactive approach supports different learning styles and helps learners retain key safety concepts alongside mental and emotional readiness.
Life Skills and Mental Readiness for Work
SafetySmart helps learners develop essential life skills that are needed to succeed in the workplace, including communication, teamwork, self-awareness, and coping with pressure. SafetySmart is designed to help learners feel mentally ready to move forward, giving them the confidence to step into new environments and stay engaged over time.
Supporting Learners with SEN and Learning Difficulties
SafetySmart is designed to support learners with SEN and learning difficulties by focusing on the areas that often create the biggest barriers to employment, coping with change, understanding expectations, managing pressure, and staying safe in unfamiliar environments. Using clear structure, practical scenarios, and interactive learning, SafetySmart helps learners build confidence, resilience, and mental readiness at their own pace, preparing them to transition into employment with greater understanding and confidence.
Supporting FE Learners
SafetySmart is ideal for FE learners who are preparing to move into work or further training. SafetySmart focuses on mental readiness, safety awareness, and real workplace expectations, helping learners build resilience, confidence, and practical life skills. Using interactive learning and real-life scenarios, SafetySmart supports learners to develop the mindset and habits needed to succeed in a workplace environment.
Supporting Post-16 Learners
SafetySmart supports post-16 learners who are preparing for the transition from education into employment. SafetySmart focuses on the mindset, emotional readiness, and safety awareness needed to manage workplace pressure, routine, and change. Through engaging and practical sessions, learners build confidence, resilience, and an understanding of what employers expect, helping them step into employment with greater clarity and readiness.

"SafetySmart is now playing a positive and impactive role, helping Grimes Finishing's achieve a better health and safety culture"
Richard Grimes
"SafetySmart is delivered in a clever way, because it almost tricks the students into thinking that they are playing a game, when in fact they are learning some very important messages, which they won’t forget! I was amazed that we got to an hour and a half of SafetySmart, and the students hadn’t even noticed that the time had gone, and were actually disappointed that we had finished!"
Mick Westman
Founder & CEO, Digital Innovators
"SafetySmart has been a key element of our Health, Safety and Environmental training programme for some years now. It helps to keep the team focused on safety and safety legislation in a fun and engaging way.
The idea of using a similar system to safely introduce students to the world of work sounds like a fabulous idea and one that I wholeheartedly endorse."
