Competition Winners


Once again, we received some fantastic entries for the competition, making judging tough. Well done to all the schools and pupils who took part. The two winning schools are:

The Hall Primary School "We launched the competition during our Safer Internet Day assembly and then put up the display with post-it notes ready for the children. It gave them a chance to think about their tips and reflect over time as they did a different topic each day. It was great to see pupils from KS1 upwards getting involved and crowding around the display in order to get their ideas up."

SID2019 Primary WinnerBest Primary School
This entry was submitted by Cwm Glas Primary School in Swansea. Overseeing the project, Claire Howells from the school added "The boys really enjoyed the challenge of making a poster and used the example you provided as a template to build on. They took on board all the information they were given. They even created a background on a painting program so they knew it wasn’t a copyright image. They have been very excited for today to find out the competition winner!"

castleford tweetBest Secondary School
The winner in the secondary school category were the Digital Leaders from Castleford Academy.

Their winning entry can be viewed on Twitter here.

Mr Whitworth from Castleford Academy commented "Digital Leaders is something that we have been slowly developing over the past 12months. Giving pupils more ownership of Digital technologies and its development in the school. We are always on the look out for projects to get involved in. This one is particularly important to us as a school. We had a number of in-depth discussions about what our top tips would be. All pupils enjoyed the involvement in the project and it has been rolled out across the school as part of our Safer Internet Day (week) campaign."

Winning schools each receive one years free membership to Safeguarding Essentials.

St Wolstans E-safety Video

Highly Commended


We would like to make a special mention St Wolstans Community School. The pupils there put in a great deal of preparation and organisation to come up with an e-safety song. You can view their video on the school Facebook page
