How to help children make good decisions about social media Katy Blackham from West Park School in Spondon, Derby, describe the impact our interaction sessions with Year 7 groups had. We ran 10 sessions over two days with classes, leading to hundreds of commitments to change from the students.

3) Have you set house rules? If you don't create boundaries, children will often develop unhealthy habits. Sitting down with your kids to agree on house rules together leads to better results.

We run free parents' sessions and either free or low-price sessions in schools.

2) Are you checking regularly? We know that children overstep the boundaries, so we need to keep an eye on what they’re doing on social media. After all, they are children - not adults.
