As part of our RSE and Computing Curriculum, we use a comprehensive scheme of work to teach aspects of Online Safety and Digital Literacy explicitly throughout the year. Project Evolve is an online based scheme of work which is constantly ‘evolving’ to ensure the online safety messages that children and young people are being taught are delivered in a way that is more appropriate, meaningful and encourages reflection for positive outcomes.
Online Safety/Digital Literacy content is separated into eight strands which are taught throughout the year covering everything from online relationships to copyright and ownership.
