The Digital Footprint Audit: A Worksheet for Secondary Pupils
Ask a Year 8 pupil to review their own privacy settings and you'll get a shrug. Ask them to spot the mistakes on someone else's profile, and they'll find five in a minute.
This worksheet uses that gap. Pupils meet Alex, a fictional profile with a very real set of habits: location sharing left wide open, a school-tagged photo, a bio that reads like an invitation. No real phones, no real accounts, just enough distance for pupils to be honest.
What's inside:
- Five audit prompts covering location data, oversharing, and public bios
- A "turn the mirror around" section, where pupils check their own settings against what they've just found
- Space for name, class and date, ready to hand in or keep on file
