Supporting high-quality early safety education
For our new e-learning course, Embedding Safety, Health and Wellbeing in the Classroom, Dr Bradbury will undertake a comprehensive developmental and strategic review. Scheduled to launch in summer 2026, the course is designed to equip early years foundation stage (EYFS), key stage one (KS1), and key stage two (KS2) educators with the confidence and knowledge to integrate safety, health, and wellbeing into everyday learning.
His review will consider curriculum alignment, learning theory, behavioural science, language development, emotional literacy, cultural inclusivity, and measurable impact - ensuring the course is grounded in research while remaining practical for classroom delivery.
Bethany Holroyd, Founder and Director of The Safety Superhero Academy, said:
"Working with Aaron is such a privilege. His insight and expertise bring a new level of depth to our e-learning. He understands how to translate research and best practice into something practical and engaging for teachers - and ultimately for children."
Dr Bradbury added:
"The Safety Superhero Academy’s work is incredibly innovative. I’m really excited to be a part of it and look forward to seeing how the e-learning course develops. I think it could make a real difference across the Early Years and primary education sector.”
This collaboration marks a key milestone in the development of the e-learning course, which applies the Safety Superhero® method to support educators in embedding safety, health, and wellbeing into everyday learning. Grounded in the Academy’s structured framework, the course equips teachers with practical, research-informed tools to nurture confident, safety-aware children. Scheduled for release in the coming months, it will help spark curiosity, build positive habits, and inspire the next generation to contribute to safer communities and a workforce prepared for the future.
