Have you heard of Safer Internet Day? It's the one day in the year we can all pause browsing to make sure we are up to date with the latest advice and information to be safe online.

This year’s Safer Internet Day has the theme of Online rights and Responsibilities and will take place on 5th February 2013. On this day the UK Safer Internet Centre is giving children and young people the opportunity to share their views about their online rights. The views of young people from across the UK will be presented to the government on Safer Internet Day 2013.

For schools there is a Safer Internet Day School packs. Both primary and secondary school packs are available and consist of five quick classroom activities, one fully supported lesson plan with curriculum links and staff guidance, and a poster to start discussion and promote Safer Internet Day. Why not get your school involved?
