Becta's "Next Generation Learning" campaign aims to improve the way schools and colleges use technology for learning, and a key part of this drive is about raising awareness among parents of the benefits of technology and the internet, while encouraging them to stay safe online.
There is a huge amount of advice and guidance available for parents to ensure their children are protected in the virtual world.
Organisations like the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) and Stay Safe Online, for example, are working hard to help parents understand more about what their children are doing on the web.

Before parents throw their computers away in horror at the news that the virtual world isn't as safe as they once believed, they should consider the huge benefits that the internet, computers and other technology are bringing to children and young people.
