Safer Internet Day 2017

Reflections Training Academy are helping to promote the UK Safer Internet Day 2017:


This theme has been chosen as the global Safer Internet Day theme by the Insafe network as it reflects the importance of all stakeholders of the internet to effect positive change. This change can come from individuals, schools/colleges, organisations, law enforcement and the internet industry itself. The theme encourages young people to work together to be positive, safe and respectful online. In the UK the campaign will particularly explore the ways that young people use images and videos to communicate online, and how this can impact on their views, wellbeing and reputation.

You can find out more by visiting www.saferinternetday.org.uk , speaking to one of our tutors or visiting www.reflectionsmoodle.co.uk

The final 32 students arrived for the final event to ever be hosted in the Wella World Studio London premises on Mortimer Street, before the studio moves to its new location, No.1 The Strand. Each student was tasked with styling and creating a finished look within a one hour time limit. Judged by some of the most respected names in the industry; Karen Kennedy from Indigo Rye, Altin Ismaili from Marc Antoni, Ryan Jones from Wow and Patrick Cameron were there to review the competitors and choose their winners.
