Not-for-profit organisation that has a simple purpose – to empower parents and carers to keep children safe in the digital world.
The CCEA is a non-departmental public body (NDPB) funded by and responsible to the Department of Education (DE) in Northern Ireland and their website provides many different learning resources for pupils from Pre-School age (3-4) up to Post-16 in relation to this.
Below is an extract from their website:
Central to our curriculum is its aim to equip our young people to make informed and responsible choices and decisions throughout their lives, and we see eSafety as an important aspect of this. It’s not just about the technology, but also core concepts of personal safety, of showing respect for others and of critical discrimination.
Also, the Wellbeing Hub shows how the Northern Ireland Curriculum promotes the learning and development of skills that support pupils’ wellbeing and mental health. It also supports the Emotional Health and Wellbeing Framework for Children and Young People in Education that’s being developed collaboratively by the Departments of Education and Health, the Public Health Agency, the Health and Social Care Board, and the Education
Authority (EA).

In 2013, Code.org was launched by twin brothers Hadi and Ali Partovi with a video promoting computer science. This video became #1 on YouTube for a day, and 15,000 schools reached out to us for help. Since then, we've expanded from a bootstrapped staff of volunteers to build a full organization supporting a worldwide movement
Climate Change and Southern Voices is a learning module for multidisciplinary learning for the upper comprehensive school and for upper secondary institutions. At the core of the learning module are the global connections of complex phenomena, questions of justice, feelings and reactions caused by great challenges and turning them into action. A video project of four lessons which will be carried out as a group project brings an activeelement into the module. The students have a chance to examine the themes of sustainable development from the perspectives of both North and South and to take their own stand on the themes. The learning module is suitable, for example, for geography, biology, art and social studies classes or as a collaboration between these subjects. You can also use the
English materials for English class. The package of learning modules includes the following materials: a lesson plan,
