What’s changing and why

We’ve proudly delivered free, in-person school workshops to millions of children across the UK, helping them stay safe around dogs and learn about responsible dog ownership.

As we look to reach even more young people, we’re evolving how we deliver this important education.  

To achieve this, we’ve made the decision to cease delivery of our in-person school workshops. This wasn’t an easy choice, but it reflects our commitment to making our programme more accessible, scalable and available to more schools across the nation.  

As we begin developing our new interactive educational resources, schools can still access our free, downloadable workshop materials below.

What if I’m signed up for a free school workshop?

If your in-person workshops needs to be cancelled, you will be contacted by the education team.

Learning resources

Our suite of free resources will provide an engaging and memorable learning experience with fun dog-themed content.

Our resources can be used with pupils between the ages of four and 16 and can be downloaded according to each age group.

The use of dogs in schools

We are pleased to offer our guide to the use of school dogs.

This comprehensive guide aims to facilitate the human-dog relationship within a school environment, so that all parties involved feel relaxed and safe. We do not however offer any support or guidance outside of this guide, or in conflict with our organisational stance as outlined in the guide.
