SAFER INTERNET DAY

I work with young people training and information

Safer Internet Day 2021 celebrates the amazing range of information and opportunities online, and its potential to inform, connect and inspire us, whilst also looking at how young people can separate fact from fiction.

The campaign focuses on how we can know what to trust online, supporting young people to question, challenge and change the online world. It will explore how influence, persuasion and manipulation can impact young people’s decisions, opinions and what they share online.

To help educators to deliver practical and impactful activities for Safer Internet Day we have created a range of free resources, including; films, lesson plans, assemblies, quick activities and more!

See our available resources below by clicking on the age group that you work with. You will also see links for information about working with parents and carers, and what your organisation can do to get involved.
