Abstract

RACV is committed to helping students, teachers and parents improve road safety in Victoria by: (1) providing Victorian school children with age-appropriate traffic safety education (TSE) programs which are fun, engaging and encourage improved road safety attitudes and behaviours; and (2) providing teachers and schools with programs and resources that support current educational initiatives and assist in effectively integrating TSE into the school curriculum. Throughout 1999, with a view to identifying future strategic directions, RACV conducted a comprehensive review of its TSE programs delivered to schools. As a result of the review, innovative new programs were developed. The current pre-school primary and secondary school programs are curriculum-based, linked with relevant road safety resources, and are flexible in their content and structure so as to best suit the needs of a particular class, school or local community. An overview of the findings of the 1999 review, the strategic directions underpinning RACV's new programs, and a description of the programs for 2000 are outlined in this paper.
