E- SAFETY Resources for teachers and trainees
Stephen Carrick-Davies - Childnet Ruth Hammond - Becta
Resulting in real pressure on
schools to teach and resolve
issues
TEACHERS NEED SUPPORT !
WHY IS E-SAFETY IMPORTANT?
Explosion in “Web 2” & social
networking plus delivery of mobile Internet promise!
Rise in awareness of dangers and
risks Eg online grooming + cyberbullying
And
The ‘C’ of ICT is the most dangerous
ie Communication which can lead to Contact
BALANCE AND PERSPECTIVE
E-safety is a child safety issue not an ICT issue!
• Range of Government responses: CEOP, Byron Review, ECM, Education & Inspection Act etc.
POSITIVE RESPONSES:
• Range of positive awareness resources produced including:
• 2005 ‘KIA for Schools’ to every school + ‘Jenny’s Story’ created
• 2007 ‘KIA for Parents’ CD ROM + (1 million)
• Cyberbullying resources• CEOP resources for schools
But… how do we empower and equip the 800,000 adults working in schools and how does this issue get mainstreamed into the curriculum ?
Childnet approached TDA & Microsoft if we could undertake research to:
– Evaluate the need for E-Safety in the ITT curriculum – Review existing e-safety resources via online evaluation– Conduct Face to Face sessions with 400 trainee teachers– Make clear, practical recommendations for implementation
It started with an e-mail …..
From: John Woollard To: Mary Louise MorrisSubject: Know IT all
I’d be interesting in obtaining a kit and promoting it to my 21 trainee IT teachers or even my 250 secondary trainee teachers.
Regards, John.Dr John Woollard Lecturer in Information Technology EducationPGCE Secondary IT Curriculum Tutor Tutor for PGCE ICT, CBLT and GTP programmes
Go “upstream” and train and equip
teachers coming into the profession
STRATEGIC APPROACH
Reach, train and equip existing
teachers through their CPD.
And
Through introductory website, and links to leading resources, plus self study DVD leaflets and Tutors’ guide.

THE POLICY PERSPECTIVE
ISSUES FOR SCHOOLS TO CONSIDER *
• Who is responsible for teaching e-safety?– In primary/secondary phase?– Whole school issue of child safety not ICT!– Technological issues
• At what age should safety lessons start?• How can parents be involved?• What support is there in schools for teachers in the
event of a ‘disclosure’?• Advent of 3G and ‘mobile internet’• Protection for staff – AUP• Damage to network through downloading of files/viruses• Data security• Identifiable/contactable/pupil email addresses/images on
web sites• Accessing inappropriate web content at school• External issues being brought into school – eg
cyberbullying
WHAT SHOULD SCHOOLS BE AWARE OF ?
INTEGRATED APPROACH
TEACHER TRAINING & CPD
Teachers urgently need help in
understanding the technology and
safeguarding issues.
HELPS STRENGTHEN THE HOME/SCHOOL
ICT SAFETY
Teachers will be better equipped to support
parents in keeping their children safe online
PRACTICAL CURRICULUM-RELEVANT RESOURCES

opportunity to address offline issues with relevancy, child-
centricity and impact
