'Helping children be safe and confident explorers of the online world'
Pupils in Years 3-6 are taught online safety using this new scheme. A range of internet experts and organisations collaborated in creating this scheme, which supports schools and parents in helping to give children the information and tools they need to stay internet safe.
Ask your children about what they are learning and check out the website for more information and some fun ways to share ideas and learn more about this subject.
Teachers also use SWGfL Project Evolve as a scheme for teaching Digital Literacy and Citizenship.

UK Safer Internet Centre
In addition to coordinating Safer Internet Day every year, the UK Safer Internet Centre delivers a wide range of activity to promote the safe and responsible use of technology:
- founded and operates an e-safety helpline for professionals working with children in the UK
- operates the UK’s hotline for reporting online criminal content
- develops new educational resources for children, parents and carers and teachers to meet emerging trends in the fast-changing online environment
- delivers education sessions for children, parents, carers, teachers and the wider children’s workforce
- shapes policy at school, industry and government level, both in the UK and internationally, and facilitates youth panels to give young people a voice on these issues.
We should however:
.... remember that the internet is an essential part of young people's lives and it provides them with great opportunities. Most people use it without coming to any harm so we must be realistic; banning the internet or web sites often will not work and it can make a child feel less able to report problems or concerns, so education around safe use is essential.
