Online safety training and awareness raising
Ofsted expects all staff to be knowledgeable about online safety as part of Safeguarding. E2BN provides a number of in-school online safety training sessions suitable for staff, governors and parents. Sessions are run as afternoon, twilight or evening events but can be combined to create half and whole day courses.
Online safety training
E2BN provides INSET sessions for staff that address a range of online safety issues. Our most popular sessions are:
Teaching Digital: this session is designed to encourage staff to think about how online safety education can be incorporated into a variety of subject areas. Topics include:
- Using the web as a research tool, evaluation and copyright issues
- Grooming, sexting and self-image
- Cyberbullying
- The impact of a negative digital footprint
- Setting a good ‘e-example’
- Data security
- Acceptable Use policies and what Ofsted have to say about all this
Online Professional Reputation for Staff: because our online behaviour impacts our offline life this session is aimed at all school staff (including non-teaching staff). Although the focus of the session is staff behaviour it carries powerful messages about what we should be teaching our pupils about the online world.
Managing Sexting Incidents in Your Primary School: it is tempting to think that ‘this sort of thing’ only happens with teenagers. Unfortunately, children as young as six have been involved in sexting. Whilst young children may well sext for very different reasons compared to teenagers’, it is still possible that your staff will have to respond to an incident. But do they know what to do? Are you sure that you (and your staff) know if and when you should report to the police or social services? Do you know how to advise parents and what, if anything, to teach pupils about sexting? This 90-minute session will help you and your colleagues make the right decisions about sexting.
Bespoke sessions are also available.
