Internet Safety Home

This is a very wide subject and it's difficult to define exactly what it is, but broadly it means that children and young people:

  • Understand what the risks there are, and what behaviour is appropriate and what is not,
  • Apply this understanding not just in school but when unsupervised, e.g. at an internet cafe or friend's house.

 

The main categories of risk are:

  • Online grooming (the person may not be who they say they are)
  • Risks in social networking
  • Cyberbullying
