trusted esafety provider

Constable Care Foundation has been officially recognised as a Trusted eSafety Provider by the eSafety Commissioner, Australia’s independent regulator for online safety.

Using research, evidence, and experience, the eSafety Commissioner helps to safeguard all Australians from online harms, and promotes safer and more positive online experiences. The Trusted eSafety Provider Program is a key part of eSafety’s national leadership role in online safety education. Through the program, eSafety endorses and works with providers of quality online safety education, delivered to schools and other audiences around Australia.

Upper primary interactive theatre programs Screen Name and Trending have been endorsed, as well as secondary school virtual reality (VR) program, Overshare!

Aimed at Years 3-6, Screen Name uses the story of an online gaming “friendship” to teach young people about the dangers of online grooming and the sharing of personal information, while Trending focuses on cyberbullying and the use of social media. Overshare uses an immersive VR experience to engage students in education around online consent, ethics, and virality, allowing them to make their own decisions as an active participant in the story.

The topics covered by Constable Care Foundation’s endorsement as a Trusted eSafety Provider include:

  • Bullying, cyberbullying, and trolling
  • Control of online friend networks
  • Cybersafety, online harm prevention, and the law
  • Dangers of online and offline meetings
  • Digital identity and reputation
  • Digital literacy and misinformation
  • Help seeking strategies and supports
  • Informed and safe use of online resources and content
  • Online grooming by sexual predators
  • Privacy and safety of personal information online
  • Protective behaviours online
  • Reporting online abuse
  • Respect and consent in online relationships
  • Respect, empathy, and consent in all online activities
  • Sending and posting personal or intimate photos of yourself or others
  • Social media use

To be endorsed, Constable Care Foundation demonstrated that the organisation and our programs met eSafety’s requirements for online education, including:

  • suitable expertise and experience
  • an evidence based approach
  • curriculum-aligned programs
  • compliance with appropriate child safety, insurance, and other relevant requirements

Online safety is a growing priority in Australia, and it is vital that students, young people and community members are receiving the most up to date, reliable education on the issues that matter. Trusted eSafety Providers are leaders in online safety education and play an important role in education and empowering the public on online safety issues and raising awareness of how to seek help, including through the eSafety Commissioner. Specialist online safety education can be invaluable in helping schools and the community build awareness and develop strategies to promote online safety.

Choosing a Trusted eSafety Provider means you can have confidence that they will deliver high quality online safety education.
