About The Webinar
UKCIS Guidance on Online Safety Questions from the Governing Board
This webinar will provide headteachers, governors and trustees with expert guidance on supporting school and college leaders to keep children and young people safe online, thereby helping them to fulfil their statutory safeguarding responsibilities in accordance with the DfE’s ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’.
On 6 October 2022, the UK Council for Internet Safety (UKCIS) updated its guidance ‘Online safety in schools and colleges: Questions from the Governing Board (2022)’, which sets out a list of questions that the governing board should be asking, provides examples of good and outstanding practice, and identifies when governors and trustees should be concerned.
This webinar will provide a walk through of the five key areas highlighted in the updated UKCIS guidance to help school leaders ensure that their online safety provision is compliant with the law, enabling pupils to safely benefit from all the opportunities that the internet brings, appropriate to their age and stage.
