IntroductionInternet Safety or E safety prompts many concerns with parents. The whole online life is something we may not fully grasp as our young people rush headlong and fully embrace it. Internet safety is not about computers – but is about Safeguarding. As parents you will have taught them the important safety information for the real world – that very much exists for an online world, same principles apply plus some extras!

The impact from unsolicited use is having an impact within the school environment, within law and order and also within families.Young people are being groomed for many things, on line bullying, sexual acts, radicalisation to name a few. These types of sites expose our youth to people with extreme views, who troll and who hide behind their rhetoric. Slide5

What Do I Need to Know?The internet is always changing, and being able to keep up to date with your children's use of technology can be a challenge, especially if you feel that your children may have better technical skills than you do. However, children and young people still need support and guidance when it comes to managing their lives online and using the internet positively and safely.

For detailed information regarding specific topics such as social networking, online grooming, gaming, downloading get to know and understand these topics and take a look at www.net-aware.org.uk A simple and effective way to get involved with your children and their lives online is through discussion. Slide6

Conversation StartersAsk you child what sites and apps they use –explore these together

Ask your child how would they stay safe on line Talk about what is appropriate to share on line and what isn’t Ask them if they have seen anything that has made them feel uncomfortableDo they know how to report and block – Do you?

Are they on social networking sites do they know how to set privacy correctly are they ‘share aware’Slide7

NET AWAREThis site is really good for parents – it allows you to check sites and look at what they really do. It lists all sites our youngsters are using plus its broken down into sub headings i.e. gaming, content sharing, gaming etc.

www.net-aware.org.ukCreate a family agreement – this sets boundaries and opens up areas of communication Slide8

When should I report?If you’re worried that your child is being groomed online or 

sexually exploited you should report your concerns to CEOP.It is not always easy to spot the signs of online grooming and sexual exploitation so if you have any concern at all about someone your child is in contact with, you should get in touch.You should always report if your child is or has been in contact with someone who is:Chatting online to your child about sex

Asking them to do sexual things on webcamAsking to meet up if they’ve only met them onlineRequesting sexual picturesForcing them into sexual activityMaking them feel unsafeSlide11

CEOP is a command of the National Crime Agency and can investigate what is happening – with the assurance that the safety and wellbeing of your child is paramount at all times.If you are concerned that your child is in immediate danger, call 999. How do I make a report?You can make a report to CEOP using the

CEOP Safety Centre.You will need to complete an online form which will ask you for your contact details and information about what has happened. It will ask:What happened?Who did it happen to?What do you know about the suspect involved?

You should complete the form as fully as you can but don’t worry if you don’t have all of the details.Slide12

Do I have to give my name?When completing a CEOP report you are reporting suspicions of crime to law enforcement so we can’t receive anonymous reports. If you want to discuss your concerns with someone first then call the NSPCC Helpline on 0800 800 5000Who receives the report and what happens next?All of the reports are first reviewed by child protection social workers. They will:

Read the report and assess the risk to your childLook to make contact with you to discuss next stepsGive safeguarding advice and supportSupport your childIt is important to remember that it can be difficult for a child to come forward and tell an adult what has happened to them – they are often embarrassed, fear adults won’t understand , scared they will get into trouble or that adults will over react. Ensure you tell your child that whatever has happened, it is not their fault and you are on their side.Slide13

Parental ControlsMobiles/tablets:-Lots of mobiles and tablets come with settings that can help you manage what your child can and can’t see or do online. 

When using parental controls, make sure to check things like location settings and what information your child is sharing with others.You can get more information about setting up controls on different devices from the UK Safer Internet Centre and mobile providers such as O2, Vodafone, Three and EE.And don’t forget to talk to your child about what they’re doing online and how to be 

Share AwareSlide14

Gaming Consoles:-Most games consoles are internet-enabled. Which means your child can go online and chat with other players or make in-game purchases.Like with mobiles and tablets, the controls on your games console help you to manage what your child can and can’t do.Some devices allow you to:set up different profiles for each family member

deactivate the internet turn off chat functions to stop your child from talking to strangersSlide15

Apps & Privacy:-It can be hard to keep track of all the apps and social networks that are available and what they do. Some apps let young people send messages to each other or store personal information.Others are for playing games or having fun. Whatever they do, remember you can 

talk to your child about their privacy settingsSlide16
