9

10 A quiz

11 What are the risks to children online?

12 Inappropriate content Pornography Child abuse images Dangerous advice encouraging eating disorders, extreme views, self harm Children may come across this content by mistake, or they may look for it because they're curious. How much illegal or inappropriate content is online? 9500 web pages were removed by the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) worldwide in ,000 indecent images of children were reported to CEOP in s of pro-eating disorder websites are estimated to exist.

13 Top tips to avoid inappropriate content - Check your web filtering! Does your ISP provide this for free or do you need to turn it on? (visit - YouTube has setting to lock parental controls (so that only parents can unlock it) - Google also produced YouTube Kids app - Install your own filtering software for free - Ban computers from bedrooms - keep them in public areas - Be careful with other WiFi networks

14

15 Ignoring age restrictions Some websites and games use age restrictions and checks to make sure that children don't see unsuitable content. Children must generally be at least 13 or to register on most social networking websites. Not a lot standing in the way of children joining at a younger age. Age limits are there to keep children safe

16 Top tips about age restrictions - Talk to your child - Find out about what they are playing - Check the PEGI age restriction on games and be strong!

17 Friending The percentage of online friends that children didn't know outside of being online was: 12% for 8-11 years olds in % for year olds in 2013 This makes children vulnerable to bullying, grooming and sharing personal information. Children in the UK have the 2nd highest number of social networking contacts in Europe: 26% of children had between 100 and 300 'friends' 16% had more than 300 'friends' (Livingstone, 2010).

18 Top tips about friending - Talk to your child (What is a friend?) - Check privacy settings on social networks - What apps are they using - Be their friend! agree ground rules

19 Grooming or sexual abuse Grooming is when someone builds an emotional connection with a child to gain their trust for the purposes of sexual abuse or exploitation, and often happens online

20 Do you want to be my friend? Age: 7 Lives: Shrewsbury pikachu_fan@hotmail.com Likes: Bunnies, Pokemon, Playing on my computer Dislike: Sprouts! Yuk! Can we be friends?

21 Top tips about preventing grooming - Talk to your child (visit - Talk to children about what to do ifs

22 - Gambling - In app purchases Financial problems

23 Top tips to avoid financial ruin - Learn how to restrict in app purchases Google it and learn how to do it. - Don t give them your password! - ever! (Change it regularly too) - Find out about the apps and games they play (is there any risk) - Talk to them about the risks - Find out what they re up to!

24 In sum. - Be aware! - Assess the risk - Talk to your child (little and often)

25 What do we do in school? COMPUTING (Key Stage 1) Pupils should be taught to: use technology safely and respectfully, keeping personal information private; identify where to go for help and support when they have concerns about content or contact on the internet or other online technologies. COMPUTING (Key Stage 2) Pupils should be taught to: use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly; recognise acceptable/unacceptable behaviour; identify a range of ways to report concerns about content and contact.
