Safer internet day

Safer Internet Day 2026
Today is Safer Internet Day, a national initiative that encourages children, young people, and families to use the online world safely and confidently.


The Tunbridge Wells Child Centred Policing Team is working closely with local schools to support pupils in understanding how to stay safe online, make positive choices, and know what to do if something worries them. Throughout the week, we are visiting schools, leading workshops, and offering guidance tailored to the challenges young people are facing online today.
We encourage all parents and carers to take a moment to explore trusted online resources that offer practical advice about AI, online behaviour, gaming safety, screen time, and talking to your child about their digital world.
