"All fun and games? Exploring respect and relationships online” is the theme for this year’s Safer Internet Day, which takes place on February 8.

The event is celebrated globally and aims to promote the safe and positive use of digital technology for children and to encourage conversation about online safety.

Coordinated in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre (UKSIC), the day this year will focus on how young people are shaping the interactive entertainment spaces they use, from gaming and chat to streaming and video.

There are a range of films and resources available for schools to use to help teacher young people about staying safe online as well as their role in creating a safer internet, whether that is while gaming and creating content, or interacting with their friends and peers.
