Answers.Text: @BenI., Well, yeah. In the context of this forum, it would be about _teaching_ users to protect themselves, and Cyber Security would be about teaching (future) owners and (future) administrators to protect their systems and their client's data.

  E-Safety is typically used to mean safety online, which for kids is usually a bit of awareness training around scams, dangers of dodgy sites, online bullying, awareness that anything that happens online can be permanent etc
  
  Cyber Security is learning about controls, attack and defence, risk management, hacking, perimeter security, social engineering... the list goes on: please visit [Security Stack Exchange](https://security.stackexchange.com/) to learn more - we have a huge list of topics.
  
  I give a lot of courses to schoolkids (12 years and older) and university students and while I mostly focus on the safety aspect, I do bring in a bit of cyber security as it can be interesting, it may inspire some of them to take it as a career, and knowing a bit can help them protect themselves. So you can probably spin it as an e-safety and cyber security module - there is value in both.
  
  A useful resource for both is the community of BSides events - I run BSides Edinburgh and BSides Glasgow, but there are ones all over the world. Cooper ([Ministraitor](https://twitter.com/Ministraitor)) videos as many of the talks as he can and [publishes them on his site](https://administraitor.video/) - mostly infosec, but safety is covered in quite a few.
