Beth y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud i hyrwyddo diogelwch ar-lein mewn ysgolion?
The Welsh Government’s national Digital Resilience in Education action plan sets out our cross-governmental commitment to equip children and young people with the skills to be able to think critically, and navigate the digital world in a safe and responsible way, including recognising where to access help.
Educating young people on how to safely engage with social media and the internet is a cross-curricular issue, with online safety a key feature within the mandatory Relationships and Sexuality Education Code. The Code includes mandatory learning on several important issues, including an awareness of the laws in place to protect from harm and abuse, an ability to take steps to protect themselves, and an ability to raise issues or concerns with trusted adults.
Building digital resilience in our children and young people also depends on the resilience of our families and communities. Keeping safe online is full of useful resources for schools to use in the classroom, and provides a source of support and guidance for both learners, their parents and carers.
