Shoemaker Clarks was founded in the Somerset town of Street by two Quaker brothers in 1825. The company was known for being well ahead of their time when it came to looking after their workforce. However, for the past six weeks workers at the company's distribution centre in Street have been on strike - opposing new contracts which were introduced after Clarks published losses of 180 million pounds earlier this year. Our reporter Shari Vahl is in West Yorkshire visiting a primary school that is helping its students spot online scams. The new course is called Cyber Detectives and is part of the Personal Social and Economic Education curriculum or PSHE , and after a successful pilot so far 3000 schools have downloaded the teaching pack .
