Childnet International’s mission is to work in partnership with others around the world to help make the Internet a great and safe place for children. “We’re delighted to work with Changeboard as a charity partner.Through the online promotion more senior executives hear about the work Childnet is pioneering to help keep children safe online and educate both parents and schools in how they can be more involved in their children’s digital worlds. We will happily send you a copy of our “Know IT All”  CD and leaflet which you can pass on to schools and your children”. Visit www.childnet-int.org for more information or click on the banner below to read Childnet’s SMART rules for kids.
Childnet works directly with young people to produce award-winning resources for both young people (www.chatdanger.com), schools (www.kidsmart.org.uk) and parents (www.childnet-int.org/kia). One of the ways in which HR Circles is helping Childnet is through promoting its outstanding ‘Know IT All’ CD-ROM which the charity has produced with support from the DfES for all schools across England. This resource helps educate both parents, young people and teachers about safe and positive use of the internet and is presented in the latest multi-media, interactive format. For information about how to order copies for your family or school click www.childnet-int.org/order/.
In all its work Childnet seeks to take a balanced approach. On our website you can read about the way we have sought to promote the positive and highlight the creative and inspiring ways children and young people are using the medium for good. You can also read about the ways we have responded to the negative aspects and dangers for children.
Childnet works in 3 main areas of Access, Awareness, Protection & Policy.
Access and promoting quality content Helping children and young people to use the net constructively, showcase quality content and enable others to use our resources and develop new projects.
Awareness and advice Helping children and young people acquire new “net literacy” skills and giving advice to industry, organisations, parents, teachers and carers about Internet and mobile safety.
Protection and policy Working with others to help protect children from being exploited in the online environments provided by new technologies as well as seeking to initiate and respond to policy changes.
