New Delhi: With a pandemic making online education way of life and increasing social media exposure and virtual interactive platforms increasing the vulnerability of children for exploitation, the National Commission for Children’s Rights Protection has collected cyber guidelines in the manual for children’s safety at school.
From prevention of cyber intimidation with concerns that appear such as “cyber grooming” for abuse and exploitation and sexual exploitation of “games”, updated manuals have compiled a set of DOS and should not be shared and shared it on the commission website.
These norms emphasize school needs to frame the security rules of cyberspace and place responsibilities to them to direct the administrator with the latest tools that can be used to monitor sites visited by students and teachers.
NCPCR will immediately send a manual to educational boards such as CBSE and main stakeholders responsible for implementation at the state level as well.
This hopes the chapter on the security of the cyberspace in the manual will allow schools to use standard information to regulate mechanisms to prevent and respond to cyber threats.
This manual also provides step-by-step guidance on how and where to report cases of intimidation and cyber abuse.
