Children are increasingly spending a greater deal of time online. We have some useful information in our Learners Pages about how to keep your child safe online and how to assess the suitability of new apps/social media sites before you agree to your child using these.

This gives children and parents easy to follow, practical steps to achieve a healthy and balanced digital diet
