Fascinating Fact:

Use a safe place to cross, like a zebra crossing or a crossing with lights. These places help drivers see you.

In KS1 PSHE, children learn simple rules for staying safe near roads. This includes stopping at the kerb, looking and listening for traffic, and choosing safe crossings. Learning road safety helps you travel more safely with family and at school.

  • Kerb: The edge of the pavement next to the road.
  • Crossing: A safer place to cross a road, such as a zebra crossing or traffic lights.
  • Traffic: Vehicles on the road, like cars, buses, and bikes.
How do you cross the road safely for KS1?

To cross the road safely, stop at the kerb, look right and left for traffic, listen carefully, and cross when it is safe, preferably at a crossing.
