Safer Internet Challenge 2022
You can use these support materials to help your
children complete the Safer Internet Challenge!
Safer Internet Day 2022 is on Tuesday 8th
February and will be celebrated with the theme 'All fun and games?
Exploring respect and relationships online'.
Safer Internet Day
inspires a national conversation about using technology
responsibly, respectfully, critically, and creatively. Coordinated
in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre, the celebration sees
thousands of organisations get involved to promote the safe,
responsible and positive use of digital technology for children and
young people.
Holiday activities for
children and families
To help schools promote safer internet messages to families,
beyond Safer Internet Day, the Education Safeguarding Service's
Online Safety Team has worked with Kent Children's University to
produce a #SaferInternetDay Challenge pack for children, aged 5 to
14.
This pack contains 10 key challenge activity ideas, as well as
useful resources for children, schools and families to access.
The Challenge will run until the 31st May 2022 so
there is plenty of time to get involved.
The Safer Internet Challenge launches with schools and families
on the 8th February 2022 and you can find the resource
here so why not send the resource home to your
parents/carers this week so families can get involved during the
half-term or Easter break.
Young people who are part of Children's University can earn a
varying number of Learning Credits for each activity completed
outside normal school time.
