Teachers TV Kids and Crime Week

Schools and Crime
Schools are becoming increasingly important hubs of the community, and part of their role is to equip young people with the confidence to stay out of gangs. This three-part series looks at how some schools in London are raising awareness about gang behaviour and helping to make young people�s lives safer.

Guns are Cool
Guns are seen as cool, fashionable and desirable by many young people today. We meet advertisers, politicians, police and kids on the street as we attempt to answer the question of what can we do to halt the ever-increasing numbers of young people carrying guns on the streets of Britain today.
 
The Trouble with Young People
The media portrays young people as binge-drinking, hoody-wearing louts but are they really out of control? Can teenagers themselves improve the way they are perceived by older generations? Watch to find out.

What if � Gangs
Using an imaginary case study Mike Baker asks an expert panel how they would tackle escalating gang-related incidents within their school.

Gangs - Escaping the Life
This documentary questions the notion that gang members are criminals who can't change. In this programme, ex-gang members candidly talk about their past and the changes they've made to their lives.

These programmes and more are available to watch and download online for free. For more information and supporting resources visit the Teachers TV website.

Teachers TV is available 24 hours a day on Sky Guide 880, Virgin TV 240 and Tiscali 845; and on Freeview 88 between 4 � 5pm.
