The advice I would give other schools who are considering signing up to the Netsafe Schools Programme is to do it. Along our journey we found the support from the Netsafe team invaluable to bounce ideas off and to get validation for the work we are doing.

The review tool was very helpful for our digital technology curriculum team to review where we were at and helped us form a clear path going forward. It was particularly helpful to have practical steps in including the voice of all stakeholders on our journey.
