For pupils, there’s access to lots of practical advice and tips to help stay safe online. The Safer Schools NI app is designed to be a trusted friend, providing pupils with information when you need it, where you need it, all in your pocket! There’s guidance on creating strong passwords on devices and setting the best privacy settings on social media and gaming platforms. Young people can get advice about healthy relationships and trusted adults. The app is here to help with those tough issues too; the Online Safety sections provides advice on bullying, mental health or losing control of an image you have shared.
The Safer Schools NI app will help parents and guardians with the digital world that children and young people live in every day. It gives you the tools you need to better empower and protect them.
Does your child or young person use social media or gaming platforms? Do you know how to set privacy settings to keep them safe, or how to block, report and mute other users? With your Safer Schools NI app, you can get to grips with all of this and more.
All app users can stay up to date with all the latest safeguarding news and access the latest Ineqe articles on relevant topics and trends in the online world. Parents and staff will also be sent the latest in safeguarding updates and alerts. With our push notifications, you’ll get notifications straight to your phone to make sure you never miss what you need to know.
There are downloadable resources, designed to educate and facilitate conversations on topics such as online bullying, trusted adults, influencers and passwords. You will also find activity packs, like our Family Screen Time Pack that is full of fun family activities.
Our goal is to educate, empower and protect school communities across Northern Ireland. Join our mission to keep children and young people safe online by downloading the app today.
Safer Schools NI is a partnership between the Department of Education and Ineqe Safeguarding Group.
