This bundle of fire safety resources is designed to support learners in Scotland with Additional Support Needs to understand key fire safety messages in a clear, accessible, and meaningful way. The resources use simple language, visuals, structured activities, and practical scenarios to help pupils recognise fire hazards, understand what to do in an emergency, and develop confidence around personal and community fire safety.
They are suitable for use across a range of settings including mainstream schools, ASN provision, and life‑skills programmes.
How To Use
- Use the resources flexibly as part of classroom lessons, small‑group work, or one‑to‑one support.
- Introduce topics slowly, revisiting key messages such as fire risks, safe behaviours, and what to do if there is a fire.
- Adapt materials to suit individual needs by using visual prompts, symbols, discussion, role‑play, or practical activities.
- Reinforce learning through real‑life links, such as fire drills, home safety discussions, or visits from local fire services.
- Resources can be used as standalone activities or sequenced together to build understanding over time.
