We were very thankful to start off the learning with Emily Conroy coming in to speak to the pupils about how to keep safe online. PC Conroy asked pupils who had phones and which different apps they used with Snapchat and Tik Tok being a firm fan favourite among the pupils!
We discussed the terms of use for these apps and how to keep ourselves safe online and use these apps wisely if we have them. Tips included;
- Keeping accounts private
- Be careful online with the information you share
- Don’t speak to people you don’t know
- Block or ban anybody who is speaking to you if you don’t want them too
We also discussed the dangers that come with these apps;
- Pop ups and viruses
- Possible fraud
- Potentially bad people out there
- Any inappropriate images or content that could come up
We finished off the sessions with a Q&A where pupils piled poor PC Conroy with a wide variety of questions! But, by the end they firmly knew the message and understood how to keep themselves safe online. We finished off the session with a short clip.
- Thank you PC Conroy!
As well as that we watched yesterday’s Internet Safety Day Live Lesson on BBC Teach this afternoon and had a go at some of the activities surrounding it! Finally, we finished off the day with a quiz from the Digital Leaders 🙂
I think we are all Internet Safety Savvy now!
