Keeping yourself safe online is a must. You will learn more about this in school, but we’ve also put together some resources for you to find out more.

- Child Exploitation & Online Protection Centre (CEOP)
Has someone acted inappropriately towards you online, or to a child or young person you know? It may be sexual chat, being asked to do something that makes you feel uncomfortable or someone being insistent on meeting up. You can find advice on the CEOP website and can also report any concerns to CEOP using the CEOP Report Button on the right, and at the foot of every page. - Remember, if you need immediate help call 999
Your Digital Footprint
Everything you post online stays around for a long, long, long, long, long, long time. Before you post anything online THINK – Is it True? Is it Helpful? Is it Inspiring? Is it Necessary? Is it Kind?
You will also conduct more and more transactions online, whether banking online, shopping or making payments. You can find advice on how to do this securely in the link below –
