NCA Guidance to Parents: Children's Images Online 

In line with the guidance to schools, the National Crime Agency and the Internet Watch Foundation have now issued guidance for parents. 

Below is a draft paragraph you might want to use for your parents' newsletter. 

AI is being used to turn ordinary photos of children into sexual abuse material. The National Crime Agency and Internet Watch Foundation have issued new guidance to help parents make informed choices about sharing images of their children online. It covers reviewing privacy settings, revisiting consent with your child as they grow, and what to do if you're worried. 

The parent's guidance can be found here: https://www.iwf.org.uk/resources/ai-child-abuse-imagery-parent-guide/
