online safety

We are committed to keeping your children safe and that includes using technology in school, and educating children to be aware of the exciting world that the internet offers.

In each class E Safety rules are displayed and the children have been involved in formulating these rules. Each term children are refreshed on these rules and taught how to navigate the online world safely.

This is done within IT lessons as part of the Computing and PSHE curriculums, and working alongside the local PSCO and outside agencies including the NSPCC.

In addition, children attend Safety Central visits in key stage 2 and learn more in depth knowledge of keeping safe on the internet.

Regular key stage assemblies are also held to address issues and remind children of how to act appropriately online.

Children have the opportunity to be part of a digital leader team within school and are ambassadors for specialist knowledge to support class members. The CEOP team within the local Police have trained key staff members in order to advise and support children and families with information.

Digital leaders meet regularly to discuss common issues and trends they are experiencing online. You may have seen us on parents evening doing surveys and handing out leaflets .

We have also taken part in Internet Safety Day annually and enter competitions as and when they come up!
