Get your students thinking, moving, and reflecting with this interactive Silent Debate activity focused on real-life public transport hazards. Designed to spark critical thinking and promote respectful collaboration, this resource encourages pupils to engage with important safety scenarios—without speaking a word.
Each station presents a relatable transport hazard (like missing a stop, overcrowding, or germs on handrails), and students respond in writing to the prompt: “How might you make this scenario safer?” while reading and building on their peers’ responses.
Perfect for PSHE, citizenship, or safety education lessons, this resource promotes:
- Independent thinking and empathy
- Problem-solving around real-world issues
- Non-verbal communication and group reflection
- Respect for others’ perspectives
Why teachers love it:
- Encourages every voice—without requiring students to speak
- Promotes a calm, focused classroom environment
- Fully prepared – just print, post around the room, and go!
- Covers safety, responsibility, and resilience in a meaningful way
An ideal activity to support health & safety awareness, travel training, or transition preparation. A must-have for upper KS2 and beyond. Simply print out the posters, place them around the room, let your students loose and review their responses afterwards.
