Becky’s Personal Information
Photo of her Home Address Profile is open School name Park after tea Zip It: When you’re online, always keep your personal stuff private and think about what you say and do. Remember that people online may not be who they say they are. Online friends are still strangers even if you have been talking to them for a long time. Don’t share personal information online. What do you think is personal information? We are going to watch a short clip now about Becky (open ‘Jigsaw’ file off disc) What personal information did Becky give out: Her full name – when using chat rooms/instant messenger, use a use a nickname not your real name Photos – it’s important to think about the type of picture and the attention it may attract, the info it could divulge and who could see it. For example, if you place a picture of you in your school uniform, anyone can easily find out the address of your school through Google. Always ask permission of other people in images before you post them. Always ask yourself “Would you want your mum, dad, grandparents or teacher to see this photo?” Home or address School information – as previous Mobile or home phone numbers Places you like to spend time – When Becky told people she was going to the park after tea, all somebody had to do to see where she would be is go onto Google maps and street view and they would know exactly where she would be. Make sure you set your privacy settings to restrict access to your personal information so only people you allow can see what you post and comment on your space, rather than public which leaves your site open to be viewed by anyone. Only add friends you know in the real world, remember friends you have only met online are still strangers. Every now and again, look through your contacts/friends and make sure you still want them to know your personal details. Remember, it’s not how many people you know but how well you know them. ‘Private mode’ may be safer than ‘public mode’, but arguments can still happen between friends. People you know could use something you have posted against you, for example to bully you or damage your reputation. Think very carefully about what you share with your friends. To stop people accessing your online accounts, always keep passwords secret and change them regularly. Don’t give passwords to friends even for fun. If you give it to them, you just cannot be sure who they might pass it on to. One of the best things about social networking is that you can ‘upload’ your content online – including images, videos and music that you’ve created yourself. This can be a lot of fun. But again, there are some things to think about before you do this. Remember, the World Wide Web is available to everyone, and if your profile is public, everyone can see everything you post about yourself and your friends. Be aware of how your content could be used or misused by others. For example, pictures can be copied, or altered and posted elsewhere. You may not even know this has happened. And if you do find out about it, you may not be able to stop it or remove it. Guard your online reputation. Never arrange to meet people that you have only met online. Even if you have been chatting with someone for a while, that person is still a stranger. Internet Safety & Cyberbullying - KS2 - Yr3-6 - Age 7-11 ( )

Block It Think about blocking people who send you nasty messages and don’t open unknown links and attachments. Always delete s from people you don’t know and don’t open attachments from people you don’t know. They might be nasty or contain a virus that can stop your computer working. If someone is mean or sends nasty messages online, block them. Internet Safety & Cyberbullying - KS2 - Yr3-6 - Age 7-11 ( )

Flag It If you see anything that upsets you online or someone asks to meet you, flag it up with someone you trust. If you are worried or unhappy about anything you see online, tell a parent or an adult you can trust and they can help you. If you want to talk to someone else, you can call Childline on or visit If a friend you have made online asks to meet you in the offline world, talk to your parents or a trusted adult about it. You should never meet up with someone you have met online without an adult going with you because it is dangerous. If someone you know is being nasty to someone online, speak to a parent or trusted adult about it. Internet Safety & Cyberbullying - KS2 - Yr3-6 - Age 7-11 ( )

Where are the PCs located in your house
Where are the PCs located in your house? Try to make sure they are in a family room, that way if something happens, and you want to tell/show someone it is much easier, than if the PC is in another room where you are on your own. Consider your friends – remember that what may seem funny to you can actually be very hurtful and offensive to others – so ‘think before you post’ comments on other people’s webspaces. Don’t post content that may be seen as racist, homophobic, bullying or threatening. Remember, these sorts of behaviours could result in your account being deleted by your service provider, and the police may even get involved. Remember to be a good friend and, if your friends are behaving inappropriately, remind them that they are not anonymous and can be traced. If you realise that someone else is having problems – for example receiving threats, bullying or nasty behaviour – try not to make things worse. Report the situation to your service provider and seek their help and advice. They should respond to you. Always remember, if something happens, it’s not your fault.

If problems or difficulties happen on the Internet, use the tools provided on the service to block, ignore, filter or report these to your service provider, for example the social networking provider. You will find contact information from your social networking provider. They should have links to sources of expert help and advice on pages titles ‘Help’, ‘Customer Care’ or ‘Report Abuse’. If someone else’s behaviour online makes you feel that you or someone else is in immediate danger, you should act urgently and contact the police.

What is Cyberbullying ? Cyberbullying is when one person or a group of people try to threaten, tease or embarrass someone else by using a mobile phone or the internet. What is Cyberbullying? Cyberbullying is sending or posting harmful or cruel text or images. Many pupils are being targeted with cyber bullying in their own homes, by phone texts, silent calls, on instant messenger and by abusive websites and forums set up to cause humiliation and embarrassment. It is defined using technology such as mobile phones, social networking websites, PCs and the internet to cause upset, alarm, humiliation and embarrassment. If you suspect you are being cyberbullied you must report this to a trusted and safe adult e.g. parent/guardian, teacher, PCSO, Police Officer, etc Are you a part of it? Those who take part in online bullying often use a group of friends to target their victims. They can ask others to add a comment to a photo on a blog, or forward something embarrassing onto another group of friends. Sometimes, these people don’t even realise they’re actually bullying someone. Internet Safety & Cyberbullying - KS2 - Yr3-6 - Age 7-11 ( ) 11

What Forms Can It Take ? Email Instant messenger and chatrooms
Social network sites Mobile phone Interactive gaming Sending viruses Abusing personal information What forms can it take? There are lots of different types of cyberbullying. These are the main ones: Sending s that can be threatening or upsetting. s can be sent directly to a single target, or to a group of people to encourage them to become part of the bullying. These messages or ‘hate mails’ can include examples of racism, sexism and other types of prejudice. If someone sends you a message and you forward or laugh at it, you’re actually adding to the problem. Instant messenger and chatrooms: Sending instant messenger and chatroom messages to friends or direct to a victim. Others can be invited into the bullying conversation, who then become part of it by laughing. Social networking sites: Setting up profiles on social networking sites to make fun of someone. By visiting these pages or contributing to them, you become part of the problem and add to the feelings of unhappiness felt by the victim. Mobile phone: Sending humiliating and abusive text or video messages, as well as photo messages and phone calls over a mobile phone. This includes anonymous text messages over short distances using Bluetooth technology and sharing videos of physical attacks on individuals (happy slapping). Interactive gaming: Games consoles allow players to chat online with anyone they find themselves matched with in a multi-player game. Sometimes cyberbullies abuse other players and use threats. They can also lock victims out of games, spread false rumours about someone or hack into someone’s account. Sending viruses: Some people send viruses or hacking programs to another person that can destroy their computers or delete personal information from their hard drive. Abusing personal information: Many victims of cyberbullying have complained that they have seen personal photos, s or blog postings posted where others could see it without their permission. Social networking sites make it a lot easier for web users to get hold of personal information and photos of people. They can also get hold of someone’s messaging accounts and chat to people pretending to be the victim. Internet Safety & Cyberbullying - KS2 - Yr3-6 - Age 7-11 ( ) 12

Cyberbullies There is no hiding place in cyberspace
You are not anonymous online You can be traced Fortunately, no matter how careful the bully is to cover his/her tracks, there is no hiding place in cyberspace and the police can track their digital fingerprints down to an individual computer or mobile phone. It is important to understand that you are not anonymous online. You can be traced even if you gave a fake account and registration information. Every computer and device connected to the Internet has a unique address (given by your Internet service provider). This is linked to your computer in the real world – to your real-world address. The police, and some others, can access this address, and it is linked to every communication you send online. Setting up a fake page to pose as someone else may seem a clever way to embarrass the person you are impersonating. But this can have very serious consequences – to the other person and, in fact, to yourself, as the police may become involved. Internet Safety & Cyberbullying - KS2 - Yr3-6 - Age 7-11 ( ) 15
