streetC.R.E.D.™ (Casualty Reduction Education Day) is West Yorkshire Casualty Reduction Partnership's education programme for young people who are all learner drivers, novice drivers, or soon-to-be drivers™ on the theme of staying safe and secure when out on the roads.

Designed with the help of education professionals, the streetC.R.E.D.™ presentation is at the heart of a number of optional spin-off activities that tie in with curriculum and "Asdan" achievements.

The whole provides an experience of genuine and lasting benefit to pupils.

Objectives of streetC.R.E.D.™:

• To help educate an audience of new and future drivers about how to stay safe and secure on the roads™ and about respecting themselves, their passengers and other road users by respecting speed limits
• To present streetC.R.E.D.™ in a way that's inter-active and FUN, so that it is more memorable and meaningful to the audience
• To provide opportunities for pupils to actively engage in and help "shape" the presentation and programme (before, during and after)
• To provide opportunities for pupils to gain academic "qualifications or accreditations" through streetC.R.E.D.™

Pupils participate in the planning and preparation of the event, so they share ownership and responsibility.
