1st rule- if at any point you don’t like what you see...

1. Close down the browser or switch off your device.

2. Report it.

3. Tell a responsible adult (parents, tutor, head of year or support worker to name a few).

Many of us step into the online world everyday but it is really important to following these simple steps:

1. Remember to create a positive digital footprint - everything you do online can be traced.

2. Communicate with only people you know.

3. If you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face don’t say it all - cyber-bullying matters!

4. Only download items from websites you know for sure are secure - remember to look for the padlock and https!

5. Don’t overshare / share personal details.

6. Try to limit your time on electronic devices - have regular breaks.

7. Always use passwords which are safe and secure, and do not share these with anyone else.
