Age 7-11 Teaching Resources - Online Bullying

Below (in red) you will find links to Own It content - near the top of each of these pages you will find a link to a downloadable teacher resource document with lesson ideas, discussion points and potential homework activities.

Each has been mapped to particular age 7-11 learning outcome statements from the Education for a Connected World framework set out by the UK Council for Internet Safety.

This is a cross-curricular framework, designed to be particularly useful for PSHE, RSHE and Computing. It highlights what a child should know at each educational stage in terms of current online technology, its influence on behaviour and development, and what skills they need to be able to navigate it.
