Online profiles for school kids

Ms PATTEN (Northern Metropolitan) (14:51:58) — My constituency question is to the Minister for Education. One of my constituents is the father of six-year-old and nine-year-old daughters and is concerned about school cyber safety. His daughters’ primary school requires students to create online profiles on an Australian fundraising website that include their name, their school and their photo to participate in the school fundraiser. These profiles can be freely searched by anyone, which is a great safety concern to him. He asks whether the minister is similarly concerned and what he will do to address it.
