This is Cyber Resilience and Internet Safety

This programme aims to support teachers develop their own knowledge and understanding of cyber resilience/internet safety and cyber security. It will explore the skills and knowledge children and young people need to participate effectively in a digital society.

Participants will reflect on the need for cyber resilience and how to teach it, develop a school curriculum for teaching cyber resilience/internet safety to learners of all ages and access resources and coaching to deliver your own cyber training in your setting. 

There will also be a session exploring cyber security and how to develop this as a curricular area in your school.

This CLPL will run before and after the Christmas holiday.

When we use the internet we either consume, create or communicate. Each of these behaviours has different levels and types of risk. This toolkit will help you to diagnose, understand and then support learners with their digital needs. 

Before you start with the toolkit, find out what your learners are using and doing online; and the issues or risks this presents. With this information you can use the toolkit to locate information, resources and professional learning to support you in planning meaningful CRIS learning.
