Online Safety
For parents:
Keeping our children safe online is a priority for us.
In school, we teach the children about internet safety throughout the year through their computing lessons, PSHE lessons and in assemblies.
On this page you will find helpful information about how parents and carers can develop safe use of the internet at home too.
Have a look at the weblinks below for information about keeping children safe on the internet.
