About The Webinar
Using Specialist External Providers to Enhance Online Safety Education
This webinar will provide headteachers, senior leaders, governors, teachers and support staff with a review of UKCIS guidance into the most effective ways that external resources and speakers can be deployed to further a proactive approach to online safety education.
On 6 October 2022, the UK Council for Internet Safety (UKCIS) issued updated guidance for education settings that wish to use external expertise to support and enhance their online safety teaching. For instance, to support the planned delivery of the curriculum or an awareness raising activity.
This webinar will examine how the revised guidance can be used to facilitate and steer conversations between educational settings and external specialists – not only in developing young people’s digital literacy skills but also in building parental awareness of online safety matters.
