Tuesday, 7th February 2023, is Safer Internet Day, an excellent opportunity for your school to educate, inspire and empower your students to be ethical and knowledgeable digital citizens. Check out these simple ways your school can get involved.
Safer Internet Day (SID) is a global event that brings together communities, families, schools and organisations from more than 200 countries to help create safer online spaces.
