Last updated by Stephanie Rosser on Wednesday, September 24, 2025

 

Backseat Boss is a new educational initiative from AXA, aimed at improving road safety through schools.

 

AXA is supporting schools with fun sessions for KS1, KS2 and SEN pupils that:

  • Support PSHE curriculums on health & wellbeing, citizenship and road safety
  • Break down safe driving into simple, memorable rules
  • Reinforce learning through interactive games and group activities
  • Empower children to become a ‘Backseat BOSS!’ – confidently sharing their knowledge at home

 

All classroom resources – including lesson plans, materials, and activity kits – are provided free of charge by AXA. And, it comes at the perfect time to help schools get ready for the new 2026 RSHE guidance with the addition of road safety on the curriculum.
