Know IT All for Parents was a unique interactive e-safety guide for parents and carers produced by Childnet. It was designed to help you as a parent or carer keep up to date with how children are using the internet, and support them in using these new exciting services safely and responsibly.

This resource was created to be as accessible and practical as possible, and included a whole wealth of detailed information on a wide range of issues.

Know IT All for Primary school teachers was an award-winning resource designed especially for primary school staff to help them understand important e-safety issues and how to get the most out of the internet.

Presented by primary school teaching staff, the video tutorials covered a range of e-safety issues including:

  • E-safety as a whole school issue
  • Protecting myself as a professional
  • Helping parents protect their children online
  • E-safety and children with Special Education Needs (SEN)
  • Handling disclosures

Know IT All for Primary also contained a specially designed five-part animation called The Adventures of Kara, Winston and the SMART Crew

Know IT All Secondary Toolkits contained a wide range of e-safety resources for secondary school pupils.

They were produced by Childnet to help secondary school teachers and school staff understand and address a range of e-safety issues within schools.

Both the Secondary Toolkit and the Upper Secondary Toolkit comprised of fully supported lesson plans and a range of accompanying resources.

These resources consisted of online safety advice and tools for teachers and professionals working with SEN pupils.

They recognised that some groups of children are potentially more vulnerable and more at risk than others when using ICT.

These can include children with emotional or behavioural difficulties, learning difficulties, and other complex needs, as well as those whose English is an additional language, and looked after children.
