Skills for Life: Personal Safety
Mae disgrifiad y cymhwyster yn Saesneg yn unig, gan ei fod wedi ei gymryd o fanyleb Saesneg CBAC.
Personal safety is a 20 hour Skills for Life unit about staying safe at home, in the community, outdoors and online. Learners spot hazards, explain how risks change between places, practise safety rules, support others and plan safety actions, with Level 2 learners analysing and evaluating their choices. It is one unit learners combine with others into a Skills for Life Award, Certificate or Diploma. Digital demand is low: no assessment criterion requires digital skills. Digital work sits in the online risks taught under the amplification, such as cyberbullying, scams and grooming, and in optional activities such as interactive quizzes, digital journals and researching online safety tools.

Keeping personal information private and reporting concerns online
Safety rules in the amplification include keeping personal information private, and ways of supporting others include reporting cyberbullying or inappropriate content. Learners at any level can use these as the safety rules and support actions they demonstrate for learning outcome 3, but nothing in the criteria makes the online version compulsory.

- Unit codes are "S621E1" to "S621L2", one code per level from Entry 1 to Level 2, and the unit is 20 guided learning hours (Unit overview, page 3).
- No special equipment is needed: "Assessment of this unit should not require any specific resources" (Resources required for assessment, page 16), and delivery uses "standard classroom environments" (page 14).
- Role play can be evidenced digitally: sources of evidence include "role-play evidence: photos, video clips, or teacher observation notes" and "completed interactive safety quizzes, online scenario tasks, or digital hazard maps" (Sources of evidence, pages 13 to 14).
- Writing is not the point: "extended written work is not required unless appropriate" and judgements should not focus on "spelling or presentation unless specifically assessed" (Sources of evidence, page 13).
- The portfolio does not have to be on paper: it is "not limited to paper-based materials" (Skills for Life and Work specification, section 4.1, page 18).
- Suggested assessment tasks "are not mandatory"; teachers may use, adapt or replace them (Skills for Life and Work specification, section 4.1, page 18).
- AI tools may be used only when "properly referenced", and misuse includes "Failing to acknowledge use of AI tools when they have been used as a source of information" (Skills for Life and Work specification, section 4.6, page 21).
- The pack warns that planned limits on social media for under 16s "may impact some of our qualifications", which matters for the online safety content (Contents, page 2).
