Safer Internet Day 2013
|
C2k is supporting the campaign to make the Internet safer for young people in Northern Ireland. Safer Internet Day is on Tuesday 5th February 2013.
The Internet is an exciting place and it can be very educational, but sadly inappropriate content is easily accessible. Research has shown that the best way to avoid children accessing any of this material is to help them develop strategies on how to protect themselves.
Below is a collection of resources highlighting good practice and advice for parents:
