Gooseberry Planet is an award-winning educational software platform designed to educate children, teachers and parents about online safety. It comprises four products: Gooseberry Play, Gooseberry Guru and two e-learning CPD courses on Safeguarding and the Prevent Duty.

Gooseberry Play provides ready-made resources to enable schools to teach online safety to 5-13 year olds. It uses game-based learning as part of a comprehensive package of teaching resources including digital workbooks and short online games to reinforce teaching and make learning fun. It helps schools meet their statutory obligations and delivers detailed results to prove compliance.

There are 60 lessons in 5 different age levels. These are designed around scenarios which children may face online and are mapped against the online safety aspects of the computing, RSE & Health curricula and the UKCIS framework Education for a connected world.
