Cyber detectives will support pupils to develop essential skills — to stay safe online, protect their personal information, report concerns and access help. 

Help pupils:

• Explain what online fraud is and identify and analyse examples of scams
• Describe the importance of protecting personal information and data online
• Explain why age restrictions for online game can help to keep us safe and prevent fraud
• Recognise ways to stay safe online and report concerns about online fraud

In addition to lesson plans and teacher guidance, the Cyber Detectives pack also includes information and guidance for parents/carers, so they can stay informed around how online fraud could affect their child.

These lessons — updated in 2025 — were created by the City of London Police and funded and co-developed by Lloyds Banking Group. They have also been approved by the NCSC.
