Staffroom display poster covering the three types of false information students encounter online: misinformation, disinformation and malinformation. Designed for school staff.
This poster gives teachers and support staff a clear overview of how false information operates in a school context, with definitions, school-specific examples and a three-step staff response protocol: check the source, correct calmly, escalate if harmful. It explains why awareness of false information matters beyond the classroom, including its impact on student beliefs, relationships, choices and safety.
Designed for display in staffrooms, staff workrooms or pastoral offices. Useful as a quick reference during safeguarding briefings, INSET sessions or online safety weeks.
KCSIE 2025 (paragraph 135) now classifies misinformation, disinformation (including fake news) and conspiracy theories as safeguarding harms. This poster supports schools in meeting that requirement by ensuring all staff can recognise and respond to false information when they encounter it among students.
Provided as a print-ready PDF.
