This project comes from a partnership between a number of agencies. Childnet International manage the project, and have received funding from the East of England Broadband Consortium to develop it. The Cambridgeshire Education Service have facilitated the involvement of local schools and helped with linking scenarios into the curriculum. The Cambridgeshire Police provide staff who act as experts in the Control Room and also help develop scenarios. This web site and the software used in the exercises has been developed by Contrapositive.

Other agencies help with individual role play activities listed under future and past events.

"This is a highly creative project which utilises technology to link Police and other safety professionals with children in active learning role plays. Through the exercises pupils are brought face to face with real life scenarios and have an opportunity to engage with professionals in real time. The project strengthens the citizenship curriculum in schools and has afforded Police Services such as ours a wonderful way to reach hundreds of schools in one morning. Having visited the project and seen at first hand the impact that this activity has on both children, teachers and police teams, I am enormously impressed with Childnet for developing this project in partnership with Cambridgeshire Police and Education professionals and I hope that the project can expand."

Tom Lloyd Chief Constable for Cambridgeshire Police
