Primary School Resources

Our educational resources have been designed and developed to be delivered in classrooms or assemblies.

The videos take approximately 15-20 minutes each to deliver and feature an Educational Instructor or Training Officer. They have been created to be played in classrooms or assemblies, facilitated by the teacher.

We also have two bonfire primary school presentations and lesson plans below, which are used by GMFRS staff to deliver directly in schools. These are also available for others to download and use.
