About Cybermarvel
The Cybermarvel program is a joint initiative of the education departments of New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, Australian Capital Territory, South Australia, Northern Territory, and Western Australia. It is guided by the eSafety Commissioner’s Best Practice Framework for online safety education. It aims to:
- build staff and students’ cyber safety awareness and skills
- inform parents and carers how to keep their family safe online
- encourage safe and positive online behaviours and experiences.
It celebrates Safer Internet Day in February and Cyber Security Awareness Month in October. We encourage schools to promote online safety learning throughout the year.
Cybermarvel has connected with 165,000 students and over 3,500 staff and parents (2021-2024) across Australia, guiding them to be safe, responsible, and respectful online citizens.
