Download the Safer Internet Day Challenge from Digital Schoolhouse, CAS and SafeToNet

Author: Sophia Aker, programme coordinator

Digital Schoolhouse, CAS and SafeToNet are bringing the Safer Internet Challenge to this year’s Safer Internet Day.  The theme this year is “All fun and games” and we have put together an teacher pack so that your school can take part which includes guidance on how to stay safe while playing video games and a set of activities which can be used to inspire young people to design their own video game, whether that is creating a character profile, designing the game audio or thinking about gameplay mechanics.  Included in the pack are also certificates so schools or class teachers can use the resources create their own challenge, awarding best entries with certificate of commendation, for the winner and a certificate of participation for all. 

To get started simply register and download the resources.
