European Safer Internet Day 2009 - CEOP Materials Released
10 February
2009 is
European Safer Internet Day. The main objective of Safer Internet Day
(SID) 2009 is to bring together key stakeholders, in as many countries as
possible, to raise awareness about safe and responsible use of new technologies
especially among children and young people.
We would like
as many schools in Kent
to highlight this day in their calendars with an event such as a special
assembly, a competition or a project.
Schools can
download a pack of resources including brand new stand-alone KS2 and KS3/4
assemblies (with Teaching Materials to support them) which have been produced
by the Child Expolitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP). These two short
(approx 8 minute) films are highlighting the issues of safe Social Networking
for Young People and being aware of how information they may have posted online
can put them in danger.
CEOP will be
signposting all the resources schools will need for SID 2009, including those
focused on cyberbullying and other issues on theri ThinkUKnow website.
Please click here
to register and CEOP will keep you up-to-date with developments and new ideas.
The new assemblies are avaiable in the "Resources" section of the
website.
If you are
already a registered user of the Thinkuknow website, please login here before downloading the resources for the Safer
Internet Day Assemblies. Please note these resources are only available to schools/teachers registered
with CEOP.
