Measures include a social media Code of Practice, to address conduct that is bullying or insulting to users, or other behaviour that is likely to intimidate or humiliate.</p><p> </p><p>The Strategy also outlines the crucial role that education plays in raising the level of users' safety online. DCMS and DfE will ensure new compulsory subjects in England, Relationships Education, Relationships and Sex Education, and Personal, Social, Health, Economic education (if taken forward), address the challenges experienced by young people online. Parents, carers and teachers should be empowered to engage with young people on online issues and we are consulting on support Government can offer.</p><p> </p><p>Since September 2016 the Department for Education has provided £1.6 million to four anti-bullying organisations to support schools over two years. The Government Equalities Office has also funded anti-cyberbullying and online safety resources available to schools through the UK Safer Internet Centre.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock question first answered 23/11/2017 14:03:20 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
