Created with our partner Tesco Mobile, this is a one-stop shop for all the things you need to set controls and privacy settings on new and old devices that your children use, with plenty of advice on how to deal with online risks. We’ve also made sure to include tips on how to make the most of their digital world, based on what they like to do.
In order to understand a little a bit about your children, we need some information about how old they are. As children do different things at different ages and stages, this helps us to make sure we give you advice that is more relevant to their age.
Also, from our research, we know that children with SEN may need a little extra information to support their needs online so if you tell us about this, we can offer bespoke resources too.
To give you guidance on how to make the best use of safety settings on your devices, we need to know what devices you have and which networks you use.
To provide you with some simple but practical guidance on what your children do online, we ask questions around their online activities and which apps and platforms they use.
In this section, we will offer ways to protect and deal with online safety risks, and stop them from turning into harm.
It's also important not to forget what children can do to benefit from connected technology. From here, we can give you tips based on what you tell us your children are interested in.
