Safety, privacy & responsible use

Safety is part of the curriculum.

Students learn safe habits by practising them. These rules apply in every cohort, at every grade.

EVERY PROGRAM

Program-wide guardrails

  • Approved, teacher-guided tools and websites only
  • Supervised sessions led by program instructors with teachers or site staff
  • Fictional examples for accounts, scams, incidents and data
  • Minimal student data collected; no sensitive personal information in activities
  • Parent communication and permissions handled through the school or site
  • No paid home technology required
CYBERSECURITY

Defensive and authorized only

  • All activities stay inside approved sandboxed learning environments
  • Students do not attack live systems, scan public targets or use real credentials
  • Exercises use fictional data
  • Students sign and revisit a responsible-use agreement
AI

Responsible AI use

  • No personal or sensitive data in prompts
  • Approved tools only; teacher demonstrations can replace student accounts
  • AI outputs are drafts that a person must verify
  • Students are transparent about how they used AI in their work
  • AI-security topics are taught as recognition and mitigation, never bypassing real systems
CODING

Productive, ethical coding

  • School-approved tools, repositories and accounts
  • Projects avoid personal, sensitive or school-confidential data
  • If AI coding assistants are allowed, students disclose use and explain their code
  • No scripts that target live systems or create harmful automation
CAREERS

Honest outcomes

  • No promise of employment, internships or scholarships
  • No credential claims before eligibility is confirmed
  • No unnecessary sharing of student career data
  • Age-appropriate professional networking only
