Usage Implications?Creative use is a lot smaller than expected, Passive consumption

Ensure younger children understand risks of multi-user gaming?

18+ games (Boys - Y5 upwards) ?

Tackling gender stereotyping?

Online platform use directed by schools has impact

Support parent / carers make good choices (PEGI rating)?http://www.commonsensemedia.org/game-reviews http://www.pegi.info/en/index/

Need to reinforce the dangers of highest risks

No complacency …

CONCLUSIONS


34/38

Key Conclusions• Most children having fun online and they experience little of

concern and do not put themselves at risk.• Esafety Education is having impact, but mainly on KS2.• Y5-6 is a watershed period.• Home is where young people have most access and face risks,

likely to increase with widening mobile access.• Schools’ access is important, and could perhaps be improved.• Online bullying is a significant issue for those affected.• Gender stereotypes strong online.• Significant number of boys playing age inappropriate games.

• High risk behaviours displayed by c3%.• Boys are as much at risk as girls.• Parents knowledge is important.


35/38


36/38

Key messages for parents• Talk with your child about what they do online.• With younger (primary) pupils – keep the computer in a

shared area.• Monitor the games and videos your child plays to ensure

age appropriate or message sound.• Do not assume that risks are less because children are

younger.• Enable parental controls and consider consider younger

and most vulnerable users on shared devices wherepossible.

• Never over react or ignore reports and seek help fromschool staff or online parental support.
