When permission is needed
Describe situations when permission is required — borrowing things, touching or hugging, entering private spaces, taking or sharing photos and personal information online — and who can give it
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“When permission is needed means sorting when permission is needed — including photos and private spaces — and who can give it. We will practise once together, then check a fresh example.”
Bring to the table
- Scenario cards: borrow phone, hug, open bag, share photo
- Sort mat: Needs permission / Doesn’t
Extra for the adult
Worked example. Borrowing a phone needs the owner’s permission. Sharing a friend’s photo needs their permission (and often a parent’s for younger children).
Optional challenge. For When permission is needed, add a “posting a classmate’s address” card and explain why it is never OK.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: sorted scenarios; photo rule; who gives permission; support used. This session samples permission judgment, not mastery of digital citizenship.

Check understanding
- Sort scenarios into 'needs permission' and 'doesn't' (e.g. borrowing a phone, posting a photo of a friend, hugging someone, opening a classmate's bag) and justify each choice
- Explain why permission is needed before sharing someone else's photo or information online
- Explain who can give permission in a situation (e.g. the owner of a possession, the person in a photo, a parent for a younger child)
“Does your child know when they need to ask first — like before posting a photo of a friend or borrowing someone's phone?”
