| Abstract | Schools are becoming increasingly important hubs of the community, and part of their role is to equip young people with the confidence to refuse to become involved in gangs. But are the streets really so rough, and how can schools combat young people's fears? Students at Kingsmead School in Hackney witness violence on the local estate, and school staff talk to them about their experiences and discuss any fears they may have. And, at Kidbrooke Secondary School in south London, they use video projects as a way to express their feelings. Home Office minister Vernon Coaker says that crime is actually falling, and explains how agencies should work in partnership to achieve a cohesive approach to the problem. We also speak to Colin Moorhouse from the Safer School Partnership and Professor Rod Morgan, former chair of the Youth Justice Board, who work closely with young people in schools, about the best way to stop violence escalating. |
