The Government’s Action Plan for Online Safety” notes that, it is now almost impossible to imagine a world without the internet or to imagine a future where the internet has less of a role in our lives than it does today.” It is important that we acknowledge the central role of the internet in all of our lives and that we support children and young people to take advantage of all of the unprecedented opportunities to learn, discover, create and communicate that new technologies provide. However, while they are often confident and competent users of new technologies, children and young people may be less aware of the inherent risks involved.
The International Protection Accommodation Services (IPAS) have developed a ‘Cyber Safety’ document to help management and families in our Accommodation Centres be aware of their responsibilities for the safety and wellbeing of their children when using the internet.
