About the Webinar

‘Social media’ is the collective term for the many modern-day technologies designed to connect people online. These technologies are becoming a fundamental part of life - particularly for students - but they can be a fertile ground for bullying, harassment and abuse. This session explores how schools can best manage the risks, including:

  • Understanding the various mediums available to students - thinking beyond Facebook and Instagram

  • Bullying and harassment on social media and online generally - lessons from recent examples

  • What polices can the school implement to deal with online bullying?

  • Understanding the school’s duty of care in the digital arena - how far does it extend?

  • When a school may incur liability?

  • Cyberbullying and the intersection with the criminal law including sexting offences

  • New and cutting-edge ways to monitor social media usage by students
