Online Safety

The internet is a wonderful resource which allows children to connect, learn and be creative. They can gain access to it in a large number of ways and on an increasing number of devices such as computers, ipads and smartphones. However, as wonderful as the internet is, there are dangers and it is very important that children know all about Online Safety.

On this page you will find key information to support your children to be safe online. If you have any concerns or questions about how to support your children, please do not hesitate to speak to your child's class teacher or a member of the Headship Team. Please read the guides below and the information from the NSPCC workshop about helping children stay safe. 

The children use the internet to aid their learning in school. In order for us to keep them safe we need them to understand the rules around usage. Please see our Acceptable Use Policy for Children in the Downloads section below and ensure that your child understands how to stay safe.
