Developed from a series of focus groups with educators and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), the resource focuses on two of the most talked about online safety concerns. The resource is editable so that educators can adjust the content to suit the needs of their learners and work through the activities at their own pace.
The resource consists of:
- warm-up activities
- two short stories
- a series of topic related questions to be used before and after the
resolution - suggested follow-on activities to deepen learners’ knowledge and
understanding
