Title

Keep calm - keep safe

Synopsis

An interactive video developed for education services as a First Stage tool, to make all staff aware of their responsibilities for their own safety and security and show them how to deal with verbal assault and aggression. Demonstrates how to recognise danger cues and utilise calming signals in training staff in how to defuse potential ‘flash points’.

Duration

20 mins

Title

What if?

Synopsis

A 2nd stage interactive tool to complement and develop the themes raised at Stage 1. This video deals with more potentially threatening situations such as how to challenge groups; witnessing a crime in progress; being a ‘lone worker’; controlling a difficult interview; and how to handle an unexpected assault. An important key behind this video is the role of others, and how systems that can keep us safe are only as good as those who use them.

Duration

25 mins

Title

Changing the mindset

Synopsis

This video reinforces the issue of reporting and recording instances or violence and aggression within education to ensure the continued success of stages 1 and 2. Discusses the issue of under-reporting of incidents. The messages are reinforced by interviews with, amongst others, Professor Tim Brighouse (Chief Education Officer for Birmingham City Council), Ken Livingstone (a directo of the Scarman Centre for Public Order at Leicester University), and two employees of Birmingham City Education Services who have been victims of violence.
