Learning about online safety at home

Schools across the UK are now closed to most families. We know this is a difficult time for most parents. This page is intended to provide you with support and resources to help you learn about online safety at home with your child. 

Parents and Carers Helpsheets

If you haven’t already, the first thing to do is read our Parents and Carers Helpsheets - there is one for primary and one for secondary. These contain key online safety advice and links to our resources, as well as support services.

Home activity packs

Once you have read the Helpsheets, click on the links below to download your first home activity packs for each age range.

Each pack contains two 15 minute activities to do with your child, using Thinkuknow resources. The next two will be released in a fortnight’s time.

Responding to our parents and carers survey

At the start of the lockdown we launched a survey for parents and carers to help us to understand the issues you are facing and how we can support you. We have had over 300 responses so far, thank you if you have participated.

You can read our response to the survey here.

If you would still like to participate in the survey, you can do so here.

If you have used our home activity packs and would like to promote them to other parents on social media, you can download our social media support package here.
