We are the Future of Online Safety Education
Sydney - Florence - London - New York
We Didn’t Just Join the Online Safety Movement. We Helped Create It.
Long before social media risks made headlines, we were setting the agenda. In 2008 what is now Safe on Social began as the very first consultancy in globally that was solely dedicated to social media risk management and education, pioneering the field before it even had a name.
From briefing the Queensland Government’s CIO Council on “this new thing called Facebook” to producing a 300+ page Social Media Use and Safety Audit for Queensland Metro South Health impacting 12,000 staff, our early work laid the foundation for the online safety protocols that followed across government, education, and corporate sectors. We haven’t slowed down since.
Setting the Standard. Raising the Bar.
We are not just practitioners, we are thought leaders and change makers. Our work continues to shape policy, standards and redefines education strategies.
Key Milestones:
-
Since 2013, as Safe on Social, we've delivered online safety education to over 1,200 schools across Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Indonesia, the UK, and the United States empowering students, parents, and educators with real-world knowledge that resonates.
-
In 2017, we conducted Australia’s first Social Media Safety Audit (eRisk Review) for a network of 52 schools. This audit set the gold standard for school-based digital governance and policy development has since been adopted by over 350 schools across Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong as their baseline.
-
In 2019, we launched Australia’s first Youth Advisory Council for Online Safety a groundbreaking initiative that is now widely replicated across the sector, ensuring young voices guide the future of online safety.
-
We’ve advised boards of major corporations, conducted eRisk reviews for elite sports clubs and businesses, and authored training content that’s now embedded across entire sectors.
Innovation is Our Baseline
At Safe on Social, we don’t deliver off-the-shelf programs. We lead with original thinking, real-time insight, and expert-driven strategy. We’ve built a global reputation not just by responding to online harm—but by anticipating it.
This is not education for yesterday’s internet.
This is education built for what’s next.
We’ve recently had Safe on Social work across our system of 56 schools with school leaders who specialise in Child Protection. Safe on Social's comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the field has been of huge benefit to growing the capability of our staff to help better tailor the supports we’re providing to students and families in our schools to manage social media.
Safe on Social presentations were interactive and engaging and the flexibility of delivery has enabled us to deliver high quality professional learning across our whole organisation.

Safe On Social's practical advice resonated strongly with our people, who were eager to know how to better understand the emerging risks and challenges of keeping themselves and their loved ones safe online.
Safe On Social's straight-talking approach, practical examples and advice, plus their willingness to address sensitive issues kept the audience fully engaged.
We received wonderful feedback about the presentation from our team, which in turn has sparked further conversations on how we can improve cyber safety at home and at work.

Unlike some of the talking heads who tend to dominate the conversation around young people and the online world, Kirra works tirelessly at the coal face - she doesn't just talk about kids, or at them, she works WITH them.
In fact, she talks to tens of thousands of teens every year across Australia (and, might I add, she makes a point of also visiting the smaller rural towns who usually can't access quality presentations).She's my go-to cyber advisor. I just love sharing the work of those who truly champion our kids.
