Staying Safe Online
Our children lives have changed dramatically because of the coronavirus. With our school closed to the majority of pupils, our children are using the internet more and more each day. It is a great way to find out new facts, be creative and to communicate with our friends and family. However, the internet is always changing, and being able to keep up-to-date, with your child’s use of technology, can be a challenge.

What is fake news? (taken from the Childline website)
jhjkhkh
The news you see online or on social media isn’t always going to be accurate - and it can be hard to tell what’s real and what’s fake.
Some websites will report fake news or things that aren’t completely true. They might do it because they want to scare you or make you do something, or because they make money from people going to their site.
Fake news can look real, but there are ways to help you spot it.
- Check the source
Check the name of the website and its web address to see if it looks real. Some sites will try to look like other websites so you think they’re genuine.
- Look for evidence
Find out whether it’s being reported on other sites that you know and trust. If it’s only being reported on websites you’ve never heard of then it might not be true.
- Don’t decide straight away
Sometimes headlines or stories are designed to scare or interest you. Read what’s in the article carefully, ask yourself whether it seems true and why they’re saying it.
- Ask someone you trust
Try asking an adult you trust to see what they think. If you’re worried about something you’ve seen online, you can always talk to a Childline counsellor.

Families of children with disabilities often use the Internet to keep them informed about their legal rights, appropriate treatments and services that might be available for their families. Parents and carers often seek advice and support from online networking groups and forums and these can help us shape our plans for ensuring our children get the support they need. This guide outlines some suggestions to help parents limit the risk of their child having negative experiences online and understand what action can be taken if they do. This guide also suggests some resources that will help children get the most out of the Internet at home and in the community. The guide will present some case studies of actual experiences people with learning disabilities and autism have had online and learning points that can be taken from these experiences. (wording taken directly from the Cebebra guide)
