Cyber Safety & Digital Citizenship for ages 8–14
Children are online earlier than ever, often with less guidance than they get crossing a road. Two practical sessions teach your child to recognise phishing and scams, make passwords that are strong and memorable, lock down privacy settings, think before posting, and respond to bullying or something upsetting by telling a trusted adult.
The ability to spot a scam, set strong privacy settings, and know exactly what to do when something goes wrong online
How 2 sessions get there
Each session is 60 minutes, live, and builds on the last. Your child is doing something for most of it.
Spot fake messages, prizes and links using real examples. Build a strong passphrase and see why two-step verification matters.
Privacy settings on common apps, the digital footprint, and what to do about a mean message: don't reply, screenshot, block, tell an adult.
