Pupil online safety · KS3–KS5

Help pupils make safer choices online.

Give young people time to understand the risks, think through their choices and learn how to ask for help.

Age-appropriate learning

Different stages. Relevant conversations.

OSA offers online safety courses for KS3, KS4 and KS5, so schools can choose learning suited to their pupils.

Key Stage 3

Build a foundation for safer online behaviour: relationships, privacy, online information and recognising when something is wrong.

Key Stage 4

Develop pupils’ understanding as online pressures and responsibilities grow. Make space to consider choices, consequences and support.

Key Stage 5

Keep online safety relevant as students prepare for greater independence in study, work and everyday life.

Learning and assessment

Give pupils something to work towards.

The OSA Certificate of Online Safety combines online learning with assessments. Pupils can work through the material at their own pace, while staff follow progress.

Courses can support lessons or independent learning. Your school decides how to fit them into its timetable and how to support pupils who need more help.

Rewritten each year

Keep the conversation current.

Our annual course rewrite reflects changing online risks. Ask to see the current content, including how online safety and AI are addressed, and choose the right starting point for your pupils.
