About The Webinar
Age-Inappropriate Content: Safeguarding Children Online | Early Years
This webinar will provide early years managers, leaders, teachers and practitioners with practical guidance and advice on understanding how children can access age-inappropriate content online and implementing measures to reduce the associated risks and build their digital resilience.
Whilst the internet can be a powerful tool for positive learning, it also hosts an overwhelming amount of age-inappropriate content. Research suggests children as young as 3 and 4 go online for nearly 8 hours a week and despite efforts to remove inappropriate material, managing what they see, how they interpret it and what impact it leaves can be a challenge.
In this webinar Cayley Jorgensen, mental health practitioner and director of FaceUp South Africa, an anonymous reporting system used to fight bullying online, provides an expert insight into why young children can be drawn into viewing age-inappropriate content, where it can be viewed and what actions can be taken to help keep them safe.
