Safer internet day

 Safer Internet Day is celebrated globally in February each year to promote the safe and positive use of digital technology for children and young people and inspire a national conversation. 

If you're a parent, there are lots of ways you can support your child when using the internet. You can read our guide to the latest social media apps and how old your children should be to use them. If you are worried about bullying on social media, we have lots of advice and tips on this. 

Visit the Safer Internet Day website to find out what is happening on 5 February 2019 and for ideas on how you can get involved and for excellent resources from teaching plans, videos and online guides.
