Online safety during COVID-19: guidance & organisations
It can be tricky keeping on top of the new online safeguarding guidance and resources being published to support you during COVID-19.
Our latest blog post signposts to key guidance, reporting routes, and organisations that can support you and the families you work with.

Video chat during isolation: new for parents and carers
Professionals and parents and carers have told us that children are using video-chatting apps and sites to access learning and keep in touch with friends and family.
Two new Parent Info articles look at some of the things parents and carers should think about to make sure their child's experience of video chat is safe and fun:
Video chatting: a guide for parents and carers of primary school-age children
Video chatting: a guide for parents and carers of secondary school-age children

Our surveys are still open!
Join over 200 professionals in sharing your views and helping us develop our support package by taking our short survey.
The survey will be kept open to enable you to tell us if your views or experiences change over the next few weeks and months.
Like our professionals survey, our parents and carers survey is also staying open. Where you can, please share our survey to give them the chance to let us know about the challenges they face and how we can support them.

Looking for e-learning opportunities?
If you're using this time to develop, or refresh, your understanding of online safeguarding, why not take our Keeping Children Safe Online e-learning course, developed in partnership with the NSPCC.
The NSPCC has temporarily reduced the price of this course by a minimum of 10% depending on the number of licences you buy.

Check out our Twitter and Facebook for updates on the latest Thinkuknow advice and resources, and get in touch with us at ceopeducation@nca.gov.uk for further support or to share feedback on our new packs.
Best wishes,
