Online safety is all of our responsibility. In an ever developing and changing world, we can't avoid technology and we strongly recommend that children engage with it. This will encourage the future generations to seek jobs in a technological world. It is essential that we make children aware of the potential risks and dangers that they face when engaging in the online world.
