Young Minds Online Free Presentation In Your School

There are very many reasons why we need to protect Young Minds Online. As a mother of two children and a regular speaker and mentor in schools, Joanne found that while tweens and teens are up to date with social technologies, their appreciation for protecting their online privacy and reputation is minimal. Joanne has also long held the idea that very often parents aren’t aware of the pitfalls or indeed advantages of social. And so they cannot be of help in trying online situations.

Joanne began thinking quite seriously about this topic and decided that she could and should do something about it. So in conjunction with her 18-year old daughter Sophie she set about developing a new course for Transition Year students.
