Online Safety: Be Kind Online

ONLINE SAFETY: 10 WAYS TO SHARE KINDNESS ONLINE

Last year, around one in five children aged 10–15 in England and Wales admitted experiencing online bullying: most commonly being insulted or sworn at, or having hurtful messages sent about them.

To a child who’s being bullied, the world can seem like a bleak, negative place – but just one kind word can be a ray of hope: a turning point that brightens someone’s day and resets their perspective.

That’s why ‘One Kind Word’ was the theme of Anti-Bullying Week 2021.

In the guide, you'll find tips such as reaching out, thinking before commenting and recommending fun things.

Our wonderful School Council led assemblies across the school last week on Anti-bullying - we will post their assembly slides tomorrow morning for you to read through. They delivered the assemblies very confidently - we are extremely proud of them all.
