    Alongside the training, you will receive full access to The Safety Superhero Framework, providing practical guidance to support consistent implementation and help embed safety, health and wellbeing into everyday learning and routines.

    How it works

    The Safety Superhero Method® is designed to fit naturally into everyday practice rather than creating additional work for educators.
    Using a shared language, character-led approach and simple implementation strategies, the method helps children develop awareness, confidence and positive safety behaviours through everyday interactions, routines and learning opportunities. This Foundations Training provides a practical introduction to The Safety Superhero Method® and The Safety Superhero Framework, helping you understand the purpose behind the approach and how to begin implementing it confidently within your own setting.

    By the end of the course, you will have a clear understanding of how to introduce The Safety Superhero Method®, embed it into everyday practice and begin creating a positive culture of safety, health and wellbeing within your setting.

    Please note: You’ll have 12 months’ access to the course from the date you enrol.

    "The Safety Superhero Method represents a thoughtful, timely, and pedagogically promising contribution to the field of safety education in schools.... the framework moves beyond traditional models of rule-based instruction and instead offers a more relational, participatory, and developmentally sensitive approach to helping children understand safety, health, and wellbeing."
