Matt’s Story Jade’s Story Jade’s Story and Matt’s Story   Recap how young people are often tricked or pressurised into situations of trafficking e.g. told they are going to the UK to study or to take-up a new work opportunity, but then end up being exploited in domestic servitude or sexual exploitation. Explain or recap how in many of these circumstances the people who trafficked them were someone they trusted, such as a friend, boyfriend, family friend or even a family member. (14-16 years: remind them of the Two Little Girls video and scenario in Module 1). Young People can be tricked through a process of grooming; initially by the trafficker deceiving them by making them feel like they are friends, boyfriends or girlfriends. Once they are trusted, they then force the person to do something they don’t want to do. Remind them, that they already know that trafficking and exploitation takes place in the UK. Explain that In the UK there are many young people being groomed online, via the internet. They are then tricked or forced into doing something they don’t want to, often sexual acts. Watch one or both videos with the group depending on time ‘Matt’s story’: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JpyO5XlfCo - 4.01 mins Jade’s Story’ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hK5OeGeudBM - 8.46 mins Group discussion: How were Matt and Jade tricked? What did they think their relationship was? Why did Jade not report him to begin with? What was she scared of? What are the key actions that you can take to keep yourself safe online? How do you report someone who has made contact with you online and asked you to do things that you didn’t want to do? Or alternatively - using Jade’s video and Jade’s story worksheet (15 mins) Tell the students that they are going to watch a short film about online safety. Start the film and pause it at 1.27. Ask the students what impression they have of Justin at this point e.g. ‘fun, untidy’ etc. Pause again at 2.09 and quickly check how Justin got hold of that picture of Jade (from her boyfriend’s profile). Ask students to predict what might happen next. Allocate the students a number, one or two. Give all the 1s task one hand-out and the 2s a task two hand-out. Ask them to make notes during the rest of the video. After the video is finished, give students a blank copy of the task they did not complete during the video. Ask students to pair up so there is a number 1 and a number 2 in each pair; they then share their findings with their partner.  Feedback After the feedback for task 1, ask students how Justin used this information against Jade. (He tricked her into thinking he was a friend and then pressured her to take sexual photos of herself). Also ask why Jade did not report Justin to begin with and what was she scared of. (She was scared because Justin knew all about her and she was afraid of him making the photos public and sharing them with her family and friends). Note: Reiterate to students that although Jade became vulnerable online, what happened with Justin was not her fault. She was tricked and then pressured into doing something she didn’t want to do. When young people make a report on the CEOP website, they are asked for their name and phone number and they will receive a call offering help and support.
