Resources

Educate Against Hate

This is a government website designed to support school teachers and leaders to help them safeguard their students from radicalisation and extremism. The platform provides free information and resources to help school staff identify and address the risks, as well as build resilience to radicalisation.

The Department for Education's Educate Against Hate campaign has released four resource packs to help teachers with difficult classroom conversations about topics such as extreme right-wing terrorism, Islamist extremism, fundamental British values and left-wing, anarchist and single-issue extremism.

Educate Against Hate: resource packs

Aimed at KS3, KS4 and FE each resource pack provides teachers with a short film, lesson plan, classroom task and PowerPoint presentation to help them facilitate classroom conversations and build their students' resilience to extremist ideologies.

Government advice and trusted resources for schools to safeguard students from radicalisation, build resilience to all types of extremism and promote shared values.

Act for Youth

Working in partnership with the Department for Education and the PSHE Association the ‘ACT for Youth’ product has been reviewed and has been relaunched on Protect UK. ACT for Youth is a product (complete with lesson plans to aid delivery) aimed at 11–16-year-olds to teach them the Run, Hide, Tell advice in an age-appropriate way.

Protect UK: Act for Youth: run, hide, tell

The Run, Hide, Tell resource pack was first produced by the National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) in 2017, as part of the Act for Youth campaign to encourage schools to prepare for a range of scenarios. This reaccreditation and publication follows further development with the PSHE Association and NaCTSO to ensure it aligns with current pedagogical methodology and is not linked to any specific threat. 

ACT Early

Radicalisation is the process by which a person comes to support terrorism and extremist ideologies. If you are worried someone close to you is becoming radicalised, act early and seek help. The sooner you reach out, the quicker we can protect the person you care about from being groomed and exploited by extremists.
