Keeping Safe Online - Advice and Support for Parents
We understand that online safety is a priority for parents but also an area where more support is needed.
As a response to parent voice we subscribe to an organisation called National Online Safety. They produce guides which we signpost to parents at the parent forums and on all our social media. Links for these guides can be found below to help you understand the online world and keeping your child safe. If you have any worries about your child’s online activities please contact the safeguarding team who will be able to help you. We remain committed to teaching about online safety through the curriculum in Computer Science, Tutor time, RSHE and wherever there are opportunities.
When children go online, they are exposed to potential online risks such as cyberbullying, misinformation, or being contacted by strangers. These risks are just as prevalent in the online world, so it is vital you know how to protect your children from them.
This website has a comprehensive guide about helping set up parental controls on a wide range of systems.
