e-safety
Childnet has worked with Clicker to present a simplified version of the animation featuring Captain Kara in an on-screen talking book format, covering the five chapters of the adventure and offering the opportunity for reinforcement of the key messages. Backing this up, Clicker’s presentation of the SMART Rules focuses specifically on the five rules covered in the animation. Both resources are designed so that teachers can follow-up the story and the important e-safety messages within it.
Childnet has also teamed up with Widgit Software to produce a whole set of Widgit symbol materials presenting the SMART rules for use with those who use these communication tools.
Both of these resources reinforce the e-safety messages contained within Know IT All for Primary schools, and can be accessed at http://www.childnet.com/kia/sen/
The document below sets out the North East Lincolnshire LSCB’s “e Safety” strategy and action plan in response to the challenges posed. The strategy and action plan will be monitored on an ongoing basis by the NEL LSCB “e Safety Steering group which will report to the LSCB Executive Group which is the key operation group and decision making body of the LSCB.

Primary ICT Schemes of Work: Online Research Communication, Publishing and E-Safety
Schools need to educate their learners about developing safe and responsible online behaviours. Below is a first draft version of a scheme of work for Online Research, Communication, Publishing and E-Safety. It has been developed by the London Boroughs of Islington, Barnet and Kensington & Chelsea in conjunction with colleagues from Northampton and Hackney. Many publically published resources have been used in creating this document including links to activities and lesson plans from a variety of sources.
