The Safer Essex Roads Partnership has been working with Collingwood Learning for many years delivering theatre in education to pre and young drivers. The two organisations are now working on how theatre and interactive workshops can be used to explore the concept of Graduated Driving Licencing.

The known benefits of using theatre to deliver high impact and engaging content relating to the Fatal Four is now being applied to develop students’ understanding of why graduated driving licences could be life savers. Using 2024 evaluation as a baseline, which suggested that 74% of students polled would support a GDL scheme, the partners are seeking to increase that further this year.
