The support available for our kids isn't keeping up with the challenges they face every day.

I'm Anna Sarjantson, founder of Screensafe and a mum of two girls. I've spent years working directly with schools and families across the UK, delivering workshops, training and talks on online safety and digital wellbeing.

I've sat with hundreds of parents who are overwhelmed and quietly frightened. I've worked with teachers expected to cover risks they've never been trained to understand. I've seen what happens when children face the digital world without adults around them who feel equipped to help.

That’s why I built Screensafe.

The Approach

Understanding online safety should focus on building awareness and knowledge.

Most online safety content leads with alarm. Worst-case scenarios. Catalogues of dangers. Adults leave feeling frightened or guilty, but no more capable of helping their child.
That approach doesn’t work. And it’s not fair on children either.
When adults are scared, they either shut down conversations or approach them in ways that push children away. When children sense their online lives are treated as a source of danger, they stop talking to the adults in their lives, and when children stop talking, their risks increase.
The Screensafe approach starts with understanding. Understanding what children are actually doing online, why they are drawn to the platforms they use, and what the genuine risks are. When staff feel informed rather than out of their depth, they teach and respond better. When parents feel equipped rather than frightened, they have better conversations at home. When both work from the same current understanding, children are better supported.

That’s the whole-school approach KCSIE 2025 calls for. It’s also common sense.

Child-centred
Every piece of content in Screensafe is built around what it’s actually like to be a child online today: the social pressures, the platforms, the appeal of the things that worry adults most. Understanding the child’s perspective is the starting point for everything.
Reactive online safety
The online world changes faster than any curriculum keeps up with. Screensafe delivers reactive online safety content updated throughout the year in response to what is actually happening. Live termly sessions mean staff and parents always work with current information, not guidance written before TikTok, AI chatbots and anonymous group chats became part of primary school children’s everyday lives.
Whole-school online safety and digital wellbeing
Staff, parents and pupils need to work from the same understanding. Screensafe is built around that connection. One programme, three audiences, one annual subscription.
Without judgement
There is no single correct approach to online safety for families or schools. Screensafe gives you the understanding and tools to make your own informed decisions for your children, your classrooms and your communities.
What schools are saying

Trusted by the people that matter

Not created for OFSTED. Created to make a difference.
Anna delivered a parent workshop at our school and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Parents left feeling informed and supported rather than panicked, which is exactly what we needed. The content was current, practical and pitched perfectly for our community.
DDSL and Online Safety Lead, Gresham’s School
I want to say thank you so much. I’m not sure if you quite realise just how powerful and important your work is. You convey it so incredibly well, the balance of your own experiences, empathy and understanding to parents, but with factual, hard-hitting honesty. It really is required.
Head Teacher, Poppleton Ousebank Primary School
Anna was excellent. She is incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, passionate and relatable. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone looking to educate and empower themselves around the many digital issues and challenges children are facing today.

Whether you're a school or a parent, this is for you

For primary schools

If you’re a head teacher, DSL or pastoral lead, the best next step is a short call. No obligation, no sales pitch. A conversation to see whether this is a good fit.

For parents and families

If you’re a parent who found your way here independently, you can sign up directly or find out whether your child’s school is already a member.
