Safer Internet Day 2021:
This year, we celebrated Safer Internet Day with the theme:
An internet we trust: exploring reliability in the online world.
The campaign focused on how we can know what to trust online, supporting young people to question, challenge and change the online world. It explored how influence, persuasion and manipulation can appear online and why this may happen. It also covers the emotional impact misleading information can have on young people. Learning on this day, aimed to equip children with the skills to spot inaccurate content and encourage them to only contribute trustworthy and reliable information themselves.
The online world is a great source of information and has opportunities to research, learn new facts or skills and even broaden viewpoints. Through continuous online safety education, we hope to harness these positives.
Here are some of the amazing books that we read to explore the theme, reliability:
