Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps her Department is taking to evaluate the impact, effectiveness and sustainability of the anti-bullying training that Facebook is planning to fund.

We warmly welcome Facebook’s digital safety ambassador scheme, in partnership with the Diana award and Childnet International which aims to provide anti-bullying training for one young person in each UK school. This scheme is a private initiative. The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport will not be making any evaluation or producing any sponsorship material for the scheme.
