Motion by Councillor Davidson - Internet Safety

Motion by Councillor Davidson – Internet Safety

“Committee notes that:

·       That when it was brought to the attention of council officers that children and young people were able to access inappropriate material on council devices, access to Youtube was temporarily suspended on safeguarding grounds 

·       The Scottish Government Internet Safety Action Plan expects education in school to encourage innovation, build confidence and teach responsibility in the use of technologies and staying safe online.

·       The Health and Wellbeing Curriculum includes provision for digital safety and risk management education for children and young people. 

·       Comments by the delegation from James Gillespie’s High School “Pupil Voice” to October full council that many of them had never been given lessons in digital safety and risk management. 

Committee therefore requests a report to Education, Children & Families within 2 cycles containing the following:

·       The current guidance given to schools/headteachers on expectations regarding education on digital safety and risk management. 

·       What initiatives are being carried out in relation to promoting internet safety education in schools and any examples of good practice or innovative ideas that could be spread more widely. 

·        The outcome of further consultation with the various youth representative bodies in the city in order to ensure that children and young people’s voices are being considered in this process and their needs identified.

·       A timeline for rolling out further support and education during the rest of the current academic year and how this will be integrated into standard practice from 2023/24 academic year onwards.”
