Individual Sessions Bespoke & Parent Nights

Whilst we’d love to think that everybody can devote (at least!) a day to cyber safety each year, we know that scheduling, logistics and maybe even the specific cyber safety requirements for some schools mean that’s just not an option.

About Individual Sessions

Whether the intent is to focus more specifically on certain year groups, reduced group sizes, or simply address a particular topic, we can offer schools individual sessions as well.

We offer a range of different age-appropriate sessions for students, as well as parent information nights. We’re also happy to offer all Individual Sessions as an online experience if needed.

 

Online Safety Education Sessions for Primary Students

Our Kindergarten - Year 6 sessions have been developed to educate students about the fundamental components of cyber safety. We offer developmentally targeted sessions which address key cyber risks, and build capacity in young people to navigate the digital platforms they encounter.

We emphasise the constructive relationship children can have with technology under our positive digital citizenship ethos and up-skill students in understanding the importance of online safety and ways to implement safe online practices.

FAQs

We recommend student numbers be capped at 120 students per presentation. This is not essential, however for optimised learning outcomes, smaller group delivery always has enhanced impact.

Yes! Please speak to our team to help you develop your exclusive package with us.

Research shows the most at risk year groups when it comes to online safety risks are those aged 10-16. While best practice guidance dictates that online safety education should be provided for every student at every year group and every stage, when selecting those that need more significant support, these students should be prioritised.

For Primary students our sessions cover critical topics like private personal information, chatting safely online, cyberbullying, upstander behaviour and catfishing and online scams. For Secondary students we focus our attention on practical strategies students can use to manage Toxic Online Behaviours, Sexting and Image-based Abuse, Respectful Relationships, Digital Footprints and Online Reputation as well as Digital Wellbeing.

Sessions are typically 45 to 60 minute periods. For younger year groups in Stage 1, these sessions are capped at 30 to 40 minutes.

Yes - all sessions are designed to be delivered in stage groups, delivering age-appropriate information that meets the specific needs of each audience.
