This is a real lesson opening
Every lesson runs the same six phases in the same order, the shape the strongest teaching research keeps arriving at: retrieval first, small steps, guided practice, and the class proving it before the close. Scroll, and watch one open.

Today’s mission, in one line.
The Planet Friend for this year arrives and names the mission, the same face every time the topic comes back. DiGi carries the heaviest lessons and closes every one.
The start card asks last lesson’s question before this one begins. Retrieval practice built into every lesson, rather than left to whoever remembers.
One idea per slide, sized for the back row, and the teacher’s words underneath it, word for word. A non specialist reads it well the first time.
A talk task on the clock, then a choice the class has to give a reason for. The lesson’s own tool is on the slide the moment it is needed.
Two checks on the board before the lesson ends: green, amber, one retry, and the reason always shown. Exit cards do the same on paper for every child.
The class fills the passport page for the lesson, DiGi closes, and the parent note carries what was taught and one question to ask at tea.

The start card, on the wall and on paper.

The script sits in the presenter bar, never on the class’s slide.

Then a choice, with a reason.

One question goes home tonight.
The class fills the passport page for the lesson, DiGi closes, and the parent note carries what was taught and one question to ask at tea.
One lesson, everything in it
No hunting through a portal. No prep the night before. Everything a non specialist needs to teach it well, generated from the lesson itself and updated the moment the world changes.
A projector led player with the animated DiGi Squad, timed talk tasks, auto marked checks, and a word for word teacher script on every slide.
Before, during and after on one printable page: what to print, every phase with its script, and what goes home. Any teacher can run it cold.
Teacher one pager, worksheet with the answer thinking, bookmark, quiz cards, and a colour pupil booklet. A paper fallback runs the whole lesson with no screen.
Every lesson ends with a parent note. What we taught, one question to ask at tea, and the passport line that says where the lesson sits.
The sensitive modules carry a DSL note, a ten minute staff briefing, and disclosure handling written into the script, calm on every page.
The statutory mapping, policy ready text, the parent pack and a data protection pack for your DPO. All of it public or printable.
Taught by the DiGi Squad
Each character owns a corner of digital life, so a child meets a familiar face every time the topic comes back, year after year. These are the actual lesson intros, animated from our own character art so the style never drifts.
The journey, Reception to Year 13
The same ten behaviours spiral through the whole scheme, deeper each time: privacy, verification, persuasion resistance, AI judgement, help seeking, footprint, balance, money, identity and kindness. Below each stage is the reason its content lands at that age, because a scheme should be able to say why.
Why we believe what we believe
A head should be able to trace every design decision in this scheme to a named source, and to see where the evidence is genuinely unsettled, because the honest line is the credible line. The full picture, source by source, is on the philosophy page.
The RSHE guidance became compulsory on 1 September 2026 and every module is mapped to it, topic by topic, on the public matrix. KCSIE 2026 names generative AI, deepfakes, misinformation and conspiracy theories, and the public matrix shows which module teaches each. All eight Education for a Connected World strands are covered, Reception to Year 13.
Read the full mapping matrix →Cambridge research (Orben, Przybylski and colleagues, Nature Communications 2022) found age windows where social media use and lower life satisfaction are most closely linked: around 11 to 13 for girls and 14 to 15 for boys. It is correlational and the effects are small, so we use it for timing, never as proof of harm. And Cambridge work on inoculation shows people resist manipulation best when they practise the tricks in weakened form first, which is exactly how the misinformation modules teach.
The science, honestly stated →UK trauma psychotherapist Catherine Knibbs argues in Tech Smart Parenting (2025) that asking whether to ban screens is the wrong question, and that the adult response to what a child has seen decides whether that child ever tells again. Our scripts teach that calm response from the first lesson. The Good Inside language of sturdy leadership shapes how DiGi speaks, and we share Common Sense Media’s founding belief that this is taught, not blocked.
Who we listen to and where we differ →Every answer in every lesson is a calibrated pathway, never a flat yes or no, because judgement is the thing being taught. School lessons earn credit toward the same passport to sixteen a family follows at home, readiness is an educational judgement that reduces risk rather than removing it, and we hold no pupil data at all.
Read the whole philosophy →Home and school, one passport
Every lesson ends with a home code on the parent note. A family using the Guided Childhood parent app enters it, and the lesson lands in their child’s own passport to sixteen, the same passport your curriculum follows. What a child meets in class, a parent can carry on that evening, so the message is one message and not two.
The passport earns a stamp for each stage on the road to 16, and in time a family will be able to print it as a keepsake book of the journey. One shared pathway, school and home walking it together.
Ready for inspection, ready for parents
Every module is mapped to the RSHE guidance that becomes statutory on 1 September 2026, including deepfakes, misogynistic content, gambling and the harms of pornography. Your DSL gets the safeguarding crosswalk, your DPO gets the data protection pack, and parents get a transparency pack built for consultation.
All of it regenerates from the live curriculum, so it can never fall out of date in a filing cabinet.
In force 1 September 2026, mapped module by module, matrix public.
Generative AI, deepfakes, misinformation and conspiracy theories, each mapped to the module that teaches it.

The questions heads actually ask
The guidance published in July 2025 came into force on 1 September 2026, and every module is mapped to the requirements it teaches, requirement by requirement, including the newly named areas. The matrix names what it does not cover as well as what it does, because a scheme that claimed everything would be lying to you. It is public on this site, so you can check the coverage before you spend a penny.
Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026 names generative AI, deepfakes, misinformation and conspiracy theories as risks schools must address. The mapping matrix shows exactly which modules teach each one, with the honest note on depth where a module touches a risk rather than owning it.
No. It is the digital literacy and online safety spine that sits inside your PSHE provision. It covers all eight Education for a Connected World strands so your existing scheme keeps everything else.
None. There are no pupil accounts and no logins for children. A school unlocks the curriculum with one code, lessons are taught from the board, and paper carries the pupil work. Your DPO gets a data protection pack that says the same thing in their language.
The same day. Your code arrives with the invoice, the code opens every lesson, and any teacher can teach module one this afternoon from the run sheet with no training session first.
Yes, all of them. The statutory guidance gives parents the right to view curriculum materials, and we build for it rather than around it: the parent pack, the per lesson parent notes, and the transparency text for your website are all included and all print.
