As many of you will know, over the past few months Dr Tanya Byron has been conducting a review of children’s use of technologies (focussing on use of the Internet and gaming) and the implications for their safety and well-being. The report is now out – ‘Safer Children in a Digital World’ and can be accessed from http://www.dfes.gov.uk/byronreview/. The summary for children and young people is very accessible and would be well worth using with children as a starting point for discussion (or even as a summary for those adults who otherwise would not have the time (or inclination) to read the full document)
