Online Safety

Children are online so much more these day and it can be hard sometimes to know how to talk to your child about online safety. We promote online safety as a school, however we know that our pupils access the internet outside of school too. There is a lot of information out there for parents so we have signposted some here.

So many of our pupils have access to phones and tablets with access to the internet. Here are some leaflets we thought mind be of use:
