Safer Internet Day suggestions

Thought-provoking resources to promote informed discussions about staying safe online
Safer Internet Day (SID), celebrated this year on 5 February, is the perfect time to talk to your KS3 or KS4 class about both the benefits and dangers of using the internet.
To help to get students thinking about how to look after themselves online, we’ve selected a range of our most popular lesson ideas, activities, discussion starters and guides. These can be used as complete lessons or as jumping off points for wider discussion of these very important issues.
