Answer Key (Teacher Copy)
1. B. The line itself. Understanding the business framing sets up everything else. 2. C. The promotion is the KS4-specific trap: risk moves down the org chart while profit and safety stay up it. 3. A. The boyfriend model. Teach it as pattern recognition, never as judgement of the girls involved, or the pupils who most need it will stop listening. 4. C. The clean test from the handout. It gives a young person permission to trust what they already suspect. 5. B. Money muling. Banks' detection systems flag mule patterns quickly, and consequences include prosecution and being barred from banking, which wrecks student loans, wages and rent at exactly the age this cohort needs accounts. 6. A. and 7. B. The protective architecture. Most pupils have never heard of either, and knowing they exist changes the calculation about telling. 8. B. The honest double edge, stated straight: protection is real and it is easiest to access early. 9. A. Staged loss, manufactured debt, compelled labour. Naming the mechanism strips its power. 10. B. Threats are a police problem with police solutions, up to and including protection around families. A pupil who believes threats are unanswerable stays trapped; correcting that belief is one of the most practically useful things this lesson does.
