Online Safety for Learners with SEND
Developed by Kent County Council, this guidance supports schools and education settings in understanding how children and young people with SEND may be more susceptible to grooming, exploitation, and radicalisation in the online environment. The resource also offers practical advice on education, technology, and communicating online safety rules effectively. It includes strategies for engaging parents and carers in safeguarding efforts.
Safeguarding Autistic Children and Young People from Radicalisation
Originally produced by West Sussex County Council and updated by the Department for Education, with specialist advice and guidance from BDSIP, this resource includes two documents:
A Guidance document for parents and carers, and a Toolkit designed for use with autistic children and young people. The guidance outlines specific risks and offers actionable advice, while the toolkit includes discussion prompts and activities to build awareness around key issues such as information sharing online, identity, and extreme beliefs. We encourage all education settings to share these resources with parents and carers through their usual communication channels.
