Here we have a very powerful and engaging assembly that I ran for all year groups throughout the school (Year 7 to 13) - it shows just how diverse the content is, and the fact it is suitable for all! It covers some really important topics, and it is literally ready to go. Content includes: Definition of Social Media What do they post on Social Media? Once it is out there… (once posted, it is out there for all to see) The impact on others (suicide, depression, etc) What is a troll (video) Case Study - more information about a victim Facts and statistics about a Study on Trolling The impact on them (reputation, jobs, etc) What the police say GDPR Caroline Flack - including videos What to do if they see something potentially harmful The assembly worked really well - it took roughly 30 minutes but could have taken longer if we had more time available. Thanks!
