Dear BPS Families

 

We know how busy family life can be, so we’re making online safety simple and actionable for you! We are partnering with the Cyber Safety Project to access their popular Tech Safe Parents - 2025 Webinar Series. Across the year, you’ll have exclusive access to 5 webinars offering practical tips and guidance about online safety, cyberbullying, social media, AI and gaming.

 

Join the sessions that matter most to your family—simply register for each webinar at https://cybersafetyproject.com/parents2025/

 

Can’t make it live? No problem! Recordings will be available to watch at a time that fits your schedule.

I will continue to update and remind families about each of the webinars as they come up throughout the year. I have attached a flyer detailing the dates and topics to be covered in this series, as well as a QR code for you to access more information. The first webinar will take place on the 18th of March.
