About The Webinar
Victim Blaming in Relation to Children and Young People’s Experiences Online
This webinar will provide headteachers, senior leaders, governors, teachers and support staff with an overview of UKCIS guidance into the dangers of victim blaming in the context of children and young people’s experiences online – including suggestions for effectively challenging such language and behaviour.
On 6 October, the UK Council for Internet Safety (UKCIS) published guidance for professionals on how to effectively challenge victim-blaming language and behaviours, along with advice on best practice. The document aims to help staff better understand, recognise and respond to victim blaming language and behaviour within their settings when discussing or responding to the online experiences of children and young people.
This webinar will help professionals to understand how to address victim blaming in relation to children and young people’s online experiences, as well as identifying how to constructively advocate for an approach which eliminates victim blaming in favour of a more supportive response.
