In this activity for Safer Internet Day, pupils consider the benefits of the internet. They discuss its positives and negatives and consider ways in which they could improve the internet for children, so that it is safer for them to use.

Pupils work in groups to formulate their ideas and share them with the rest of the class. In a follow-up task they consider a way of presenting their idea or product in the form of a Dragon’s Den pitch and then present their pitch to the rest of the class.
