Toolkit for schools respond

Responding to cyber abuse

As part of eSafety's Toolkit for Schools, designed to support schools create a safer online environment, we have developed eSafety's Guide to cyber abuse that targets staff. The guide provides advice for Australian schools about how to respond when staff are targets of cyber abuse. 

The resources can be used on their own or collectively. Once you’ve downloaded the Respond resources, we encourage you to download the resources from PrepareEngage and Educate.
