Durham Police and Crime Commissioner, Joy Allen, has selected Ferryhill School for the launch of her Platinum Commissioner’s Challenge.
The Challenge has been developed and supported in partnership with Durham’s Police and Crime Commissioner, the North East Business Resilience Centre (a big thank you to Jack Gooday for his amazing knowledge and skill), Ferryhill School leaders and Glenys from Approach Too.
The Challenge will see 180 students complete a series of tasks which will help keep themselves, their family and friends safer, stronger and more resilient to cyber crime.
Glenys from Approach Too said: “Smartphones, computers and the internet are such a fundamental part of modern life it’s difficult to imagine how we’d function without them.
“From online banking and shopping, to email and social media, it’s more important than ever to prevent cyber criminals getting access to our online accounts, data, and devices. Simple steps can help us stay safe and secure online, and that’s what the Platinum Commissioners Challenge is all about.
“Once again a huge thank you to Chris Orton for all his design wizardry and Mr Handley for his patience, enthusiasm and support.”
