Welcome to POINT7, an exceptional educational program that embarks students on a thought-provoking journey into the real-world consequences of weapon-related crime. In today’s society, understanding the multifaceted impacts of such crimes is more crucial than ever. POINT7 is here to bridge that gap, offering an in-depth look into the realities that many face due to violence.
The Mission Behind POINT7
POINT7 was conceived with a singular vision: to educate young minds on the severe implications of knife and gun crime, cyberbullying, and other violent crimes. Through an engaging and interactive format, the program presents participants with real-life stories, pictures, and essential information about laws, sentencing, and the direct consequences of engaging in or being affected by such crimes.
Interactive and Engaging Learning Experience
What sets POINT7 apart is its commitment to delivering content that resonates with young individuals. The presentation not only includes graphic images that depict the harrowing realities of stab and gunshot wounds but also encourages active participation. Students are invited to interact, engage in debates, and reflect critically on the topics discussed, making for a deeply impactful learning experience.
Educational Objectives and Achievements
The goals of POINT7 are clear: to provide a comprehensive understanding of the repercussions of carrying illegal weapons, the nature of the weapons themselves, and the injuries they can cause. Recognized for its excellence, POINT7 was a proud nominee for the Tilly award and was featured in the significant ‘Tackling knife crime together – a review of local anti-knife crime projects’ report by Brooke Kinsella in 2011. This endorsement underlines the program’s importance and the need for its integration into educational curriculums nationwide.
