Free classroom activities
teachers can use straight away.

Short, browser-based quizzes and games on scams, deepfakes, privacy and digital footprint — with no login, setup or installation required, and no student data collected.

Use them as lesson starters, homework tasks, tutor-time activities or discussion prompts with students and parents. They offer a preview of the Cloak for Schools approach, including its tone, topics and student experience.

Across the activities, students practise key online-safety behaviours: evaluating what they see online, spotting persuasion and scam techniques, managing privacy and personal data, and understanding their digital footprint.

Would You Click?

A 9-round phishing-spotting game: two identical-looking links, reveal where each really goes, with the trick explained after each round.
Open activity →

Spot the Fake

10 rounds of two faces side by side. One a real person, one AI-generated. Students tap the fake, and each round explains the tell (or admits there may not be one). A direct way to teach that "it looks real" is no longer proof.

A timed reflex game on spotting scam texts and DMs from the real thing. Each miss explains the tell.

Permission Panic

Leak Simulator

Students answer 8 multiple-choice questions about their posting habits (without entering personal data) and watch a mock scraper assemble a profile from the trail they leave. A vivid way to teach digital footprint.

Terms of Surrender

10 rounds of real-world terms-and-conditions clauses (shown on made-up stand-in apps, so no real company is named) where students tap the line that gives the most away — or call it clean — then see what it actually means.

This is a sample of how the activities above line up with named content in the secondary Online safety and awareness and Wellbeing online strands of the statutory RSE and Health Education curriculum.

Several activities also build broader media-literacy and critical-thinking skills: distinguishing real from fake, evaluating sources, and spotting manipulation. Those skills support Citizenship and personal development work at key stages 3 and 4.

The activities also reflect the underpinning knowledge in the DfE's Teaching online safety in schools guidance, including not assuming that what students see online is true and understanding the techniques used to persuade and mislead.
