26th April - 03rd May 2024
In 2024, there have been a number of high-profile headlines about the increased sophistication of cyber attacks. For this VoteTopic, we asked voters to explore how seriously they take their cyber safety and encouraged them to build their understanding of the risks that come with being online.
Secondary, 16+ & College voters were asked: “Do we take cyber crime seriously?”, while Primary 7-11 voters discussed: “Do you know how to spot an online scam?” and Primary 5-7 voters considered: “Do you know how to keep your information safe?”
51,743 young people in the UK have taken part in this vote.
