We all want children to be safe when using the Internet or mobile devices.
In school we teach age appropriate units of work which address a wide range of e-Safety issues. Many of the materials we use are produced by CEOP (The Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre).
CEOP produce a range of materials under the "Think you know" banner which are aimed at 5-7 year olds, 8-10 year olds, 11-16 year olds, parents/carers and teachers/trainers.
