The Road Safety Education Program is the NSW Government's leading model of support for educating children and young people about road safety.
NSW is the only state in Australia with a comprehensive road safety partnership with the education sectors, which includes a dedicated team of road safety education specialists that support teachers in teaching road safety as part of the NSW curriculum.
The program is fully funded by Transport for NSW, allowing the Department of Education and other educational sectors to provide teachers and early childhood educators in NSW with curriculum-focused classroom resources and professional development.
