Perhaps you talked about the rules when they first got it. Perhaps you meant to. Either way, children’s online lives change quickly. New apps appear, group chats get complicated, strangers make contact and suddenly “just one more video” has turned into an hour.
Switched On Together is for families whose children are already using phones, tablets, games and social media.
It isn’t about checking up on them. It’s about checking in.
Because the conversations you had when they were ten might not cover what they’re facing at thirteen—and you don’t want to wait until something goes wrong to discover what they don’t know.
You know that knot in your stomach when they disappear upstairs with a screen?
We can’t make the internet perfect. Nobody can. But we can make sure that when something weird, unkind or confusing happens online—and it will—their first thought is:
“I’ll tell Mum or Dad.”
Not:
“I’ll handle this alone.”
Switched On Together is a digital citizenship and online safety course for children aged 8 to 15, designed to be done with your children, not to them.
Complete it together on the sofa in one evening, or tackle one ten-minute mission at a time. There are no logins, no apps and no lectures. Just brilliant discussion starters that make it easier to talk honestly about what is already happening in their online world.
Posted Is Forever
Digital footprints, thinking before posting and asking before sharing photos or videos of other people.
The Pile-On
Cyberbullying, group-chat drama and how to be the person who helps make it stop.
Spot the Fake
Fake news, online scams and AI-generated content—and the simple checking habit that can protect them.
The ‘Friend’ You’ve Never Met
Passwords, personal information, privacy settings and people online who may not be who they say they are.
Just One More
Screen-time balance, sleep and phone rules that apply to grown-ups too. Yes, this one includes your scrolling. Brace yourself.
No Panic, No Blame
Exactly what to do when something goes wrong online—and the family promise that makes it feel safe to tell you.
Every mission includes:
A realistic situation for your family to debate together
A quick-fire quiz in which the children get to test the grown-ups
Conversation starters designed to get past one-word answers
Simple family agreements you can actually use in real life
Your child might know more about the latest apps than you do. You know more about recognising pressure, making decisions and asking for help. This course brings both sides together.
Choose My First Phone Licence if:
Your child is about to get their first phone—or has only just received it—and you want to agree the rules, responsibilities and expectations from the beginning.
Choose Switched On Together if:
Your child already uses a phone, tablet, gaming platform or social media and you want to understand what they’re experiencing, refresh the family rules and make sure they’ll come to you when something goes wrong.
You can also do both. My First Phone Licence helps you hand over the phone. Switched On Together helps you keep talking once their online life has begun.
Because online safety isn’t one big conversation you have once.
It’s lots of small conversations that make telling you feel normal.
