When we were doing pre-legislative scrutiny on the Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill we met many of the social media companies that are funding programmes. I think DCU does a programme that is voluntary for schools. It should be compulsory to teach cyber safety in schools because that is the world our kids are growing up into. We have to provide them with the correct information from a young age. Should that be part of the educational curriculum?
