Today is safer internet day and the theme this year is ‘inspiring change’. This annual celebration helps raise awareness of online safety, especially for children and young people.
Technology is developing each year and with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) it’s even more important to remain vigilant online.
As parents and carers, one of the best ways we can keep children safe is by continuing to talk to them about the importance of internet safety.
There are many resources available online to help keep your family safe. These include:
- Online wellbeing
- Parental controls
- Reporting online safety concerns
- Social media
- Apps
- Online bullying
- Live streaming
- Downloading
- Video chat and webcams
