The Feed That Knew Me Better
What happens when a fake news story looks exactly like the real thing? A professional-looking local news site claims the school is selling its playing fields and axing Saturday football. There are no spelling mistakes and no requests for money, just a serious headline, a quoted headteacher and a petition growing by the hour. With a sit-in protest planned for Friday lunchtime, Maya, Dev and Fern must trace the article to its source and work out who built a fake newspaper, and why. Book 3 in the Safety Spotters: Case Files series tackles recommendation feeds, misinformation and checking sources. Written to support online-safety learning in UK schools at Key Stage 3 (KS3), mapped to the relevant strands of the curricula across all four UK nations. The story involves no real AI and no data is collected from readers, and every edition is priced to stay affordable for teachers who buy classroom resources out of their own pockets.
