Tesco Mobile joined us as a partner in late 2022. As part of their purpose of ‘caring for human connection’, they’re dedicated to supporting parents and carers in keeping their children safe online, and helping families make informed decisions about their mobile devices.

“Tesco Mobile is committed to making the digital world a safer place for everyone, especially children. We understand the challenges both teachers and parents face when it comes to online safety, and we are committed to providing resources that make a difference.
“By partnering with Internet Matters, we are helping children develop the skills they need to navigate the digital world safely and responsibly.”
Like Internet Matters, Tesco Mobile believe everyone should be able to access the internet safely. They’re committed to highlighting the crucial role parents and carers play in keeping their children safe online.
With their established position as the 2022 Which? Utilities Brand of the Year, they’re raising awareness of the personalised, mobile device-specific resources we provide to support families – helping children benefit from using the internet and apps safely on their devices.
The Little Digital Helps Toolkit gives parents and carers the opportunity to answer a few quick questions about their family’s digital habits, allowing them to receive a personalised online safety plan for their children’s devices.
This empowers parents and carers with the knowledge and information they need to help keep their children safe online when they’re using their devices.
Digital Matters is an interactive platform to help educators teach children aged 9-11 the skills they need to be safe and smart online. Filled with free lesson resources from lesson plans and assessment tools to quizzes and interactive online adventures, the platform has everything teachers need for online safety lessons.
For many, Tesco Mobile are the first port of call when looking for a new device or network for their family. We’re delighted to be working with them to ensure parents and carers are equipped with helpful information to allow their children to use the internet safely.
As a mobile network, Tesco Mobile are already dedicated to online safety by restricting access to adult content by default. With additional options to block further content, they’re working with us to make sure their parental control guides contain the most relevant, up-to-date steps.
See our step-by-step parental controls guide to help you set restrictions with Tesco Mobile.
