What Would You Do?
You will learn to
- Apply choice, evidence and safe-help principles to a new fictional case.
- Explain one way their thinking changed.
- Create a safe non-disclosing response that communicates learning.
Book and story connection
The lesson begins with a book-linked reminder, then uses a completely new transfer case so completion tests learning rather than memory.
Important: fiction creates safe distance and insight. It is not evidence of prevalence.

Audience, time and preparation
Prepare
Audience: Foundation, ages 11–13. Learner time 55–60 minutes; facilitated time may include discussion and pauses.
Prior learning: Foundation F1–F5.
Resources: This online lesson, a projector or individual device, optional printed scenario cards, a private question route and the current Help page. Every selection activity has a non-drag alternative. Optional Create for Freedom brief for poster, poem, short speech, letter or campaign idea.
Before you teach: Establish a no-disclosure climate, confirm the school safeguarding route and DSL readiness, explain confidentiality boundaries, and ensure nobody contacts or mediates with family where forced-marriage risk is suspected.
Teach
Purpose: Assess transfer across the complete Foundation model, then offer safe creative expression without auto-grading it.
Opening baseline: What is the strongest first principle?
Ask: What do we know, what remains unknown and what is the safest next step?
Listen for: Meaningful refusal, evidence discipline, changed judgement and safe support.
Four distinct activities: baseline, explanatory teaching, application practice, changed-information reassessment and novel transfer.
Respond
Misconception: Completion means reaching the end or producing creative work.
Explanatory correction: Return the learner to the specific concept missed and provide a fresh example before retry.
Protect
Safeguarding: Creative work must be fictional, school-mediated and checked for consent, safeguarding, copyright and identifying details.
Avoid: Public child upload, personal disclosure, allegations or competitive scores.
Disclosure response: Thank you for telling me. I’m going to take what you’ve said seriously. I can’t promise secrecy if somebody may be unsafe. I will share only with people who need to help keep you safe.
Adapt & assess
SEND/EAL and reduced-text: Reveal the case in short evidence cards; allow oral reasoning and reduced-text mode.
Stretch: Ask what additional fact would increase or reduce concern and why.
Evidence of learning: Emerging identifies relevant ideas; Secure applies the three-part model; Deep revises judgement and justifies a proportionate action.
Assessment: Emerging identifies relevant ideas; Secure applies evidence and safer help with a reason; Deep acknowledges ambiguity and revises proportionately.
