Comhairle nan Eilean Siar are launching a Parent Portal.
This will provide the latest information, links and updates on current digital trends, issues and advice on online safety.
This year the topic is “All fun and games? Exploring respect and relationships online” encouraging discussion on using technology responsibly, respectfully, critically, and creatively.
We encourage all parents and guardians to become familiar with this portal for the most current online safety advice.
