Susan has backed all of the information she shared with facts and that is why I feel a greater empowerment to make sure I actively put the right controls and measures in place around our household usage of social media/apps and games. I will actively share the information from this forum as I strongly believe, being the actively alert parent who is “interrupting” a child’s online activity can make the difference between the life or death of a child.

Susan was an amazing speaker and her passion came out in her message. I was quite disturbed by some of the graphic content which we saw and cannot imagine how distressed my child would be if she was to come across this same content. I HIGHLY recommend ALL parents either do some research on or even better attend a session of Susan's.

The Growing up Online forum with Susan McLean was both fantastic and frightening at the same time. Knowing that we are living in a world where our children are immersed in technology daily and the consequences of a momentary lapse of judgement by some kids, is why if you have a spare two hours to attend, I urge you to make the effort to attend one of Susan McLean's upcoming sessions.

A succinct, cohesive presentation. Flowed and kept us interested. We made a large financial commitment to bringing our team of four and it was worth the outlay.

Thank you for such an effective presentation, this was the most engaging and straight to the point information I have seen for students and I will be making recommendations to past colleagues who now work at other schools.

What Susan doesn’t know about Cybersafety is not worth knowing. She is absolutely brilliant and her presentations are dynamic and entertaining. She has the unique ability to connect with each audience from young people to adults.

Dr Michael Carr-Gregg

Susan was absolutely brilliant. She opened my eyes to what our students are most likely getting up to and how to deal with it effectively and sensibly. We will be booking Susan for our whole school community as soon as we can.

She has always presented in an engaging and dynamic manner with up to the minute observations and patterns pertaining to cyber safety and young people. I would recommend Susan Mclean as she is a passionate and articulate advocate for improving the cyber safety of young people in our schools.

The PEGS community gained great insight from Mrs McLean’s vibrant and informative sessions. Teachers and students were given invaluable advice on how to safely manage online activities and parents, in particular, were reminded of the importance of vigilantly monitoring their child’s online behaviour.

Our main focus was to inform our staff, student and parent population about potential dangers and safety tips on how to assist the students in our care stay safe online. We were delighted with Susan’s practical, honest and no-nonsense approach and unanimously agree that she was instrumental in assisting us to fully understand the issue of cybersafety.

All Saints Anglican College

Since the presentation, my office has been inundated with Year 8 and 9 girls owning up to not treating each other appropriately. I had a parent phone me mentioning her daughter had changed her password and removed many “online friends”. I feel that the message got through.

Beth Redman - Yr 8 and Middle School Co-ordinator Tintern Schools

A worthwhile investment! The material presented by Susan was realistic and user-friendly. She managed to connect with students, staff and parents presenting age-appropriate material that sent a strong message about the positives and negatives of our cyber world. In the future, All Saints’ College intends to build on the relationship we have made with this quality presenter.

Susan McLean makes cybersafety straightforward common sense. She gives parents and teachers the understanding to be able to manage fears confidently and effectively. Susan's wealth of practical experience in the issues surrounding cybersafety makes a world of difference to anyone lucky enough to hear her.
