Beyond the Ban: Guiding Kids in Care Through Social Media Shifts

Time: 7.00 PM  – 8.00PM

Date: Tuesday 18 November

Location: Online (Zoom)

Presented by: Evolve Education

Preparing neurodiverse children, or those with a trauma background, for the upcoming national ban of social media for 0–16-year-olds.

Carers will leave with practical tools to:

  • Understand what the social media ban will likely look like and the implications for the ban come December 2025.
  • Understand the emotional and developmental needs driving social media use
  • Respond in ways that reduce conflict while increasing safety
  • Set healthy, respectful boundaries even in high-emotion moments
  • Support digital connection while minimising digital harm
  • Prepare children for the upcoming social media ban with empathy and structure
  • Tailor their approach to children with trauma histories or who are neurodivergent

Evolve’s trainers are trusted eSafety providers with a high level of industry experience and a Bachelor of Education background. They have a background of working in and with schools and acknowledge the unique challenges families currently face in the digital space.
