Safer Internet Day - February 25

Lesson: Information and communication technology

Class: Year 3J Year: 2024 - 2025

Safer Internet Day is the UK’s biggest celebration of online safety. Each year Safer Internet Day covers online issue or themes that speak to the things young people are seeing and experiencing online.

The 2025 Safer Internet Day theme is: ‘Too good to be true? Protecting yourself and others from scams online.'

Safer Internet Day is co-ordinated in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre in partnership with Childnet.

We watched the live lesson and then followed it up with two activities. The first was to identify whether adverts or messages were phishing/a scam or not a scam. The second involved creating random 'hard to guess' passwords  by rolling a dice to select words, numbers and symbols.
