Junior Road Safety Officers (JRSOs)
JRSO Leader - Dave Tickle
What does a JRSO do?
Junior Road Safety Officers (JRSOs) are a group of children who help raise road safety awareness across the Federation and promote road safety issues to everyone in the school and the wider community. Some of the activities and initiatives that our JRSOs can get involved in include:
- Talk at assemblies and to classes on road safety topics
- Providing information on a variety of road safety-related activities
- Organising safe and active travel activities.
- Write letters
How are our JRSOs selected?
Each year, the children are given the opportunity to apply to become a Junior Road Safety Officer (JRSO). To apply for the position, the children complete an application form, which the JRSO Leader reviews and selects successful applicants. Successful applicants are presented with their badges in assembly.

Our priorities for this year
This year, our JRSOs have decided that our priorities for the year should be:
-
Raising the awareness of all children in the Federation on how to cross the road safely
-
Raising awareness amongst drivers that they need to slow down and look for children crossing outside of the school.
Be Bright, Been Seen Day
As part of National Road Safety Week, our JRSO team helped to organise a 'Be Bright, Be Seen' Day across the Federation on Friday 21st November 2025. In doing this, the team encouraged the school to wear their brightest clothes to ensure they were seen. They also promoted this in assemblies, explaining the importance of being seen whilst out in the winter months to avoid being hurt. The JRSOs also took part in assemblies on the 'Green Cross Code' and how to cross roads safely.
