Online Safety

 

The aim of our Online commitment to pupils, parents and staff is to provide a safe environment through our use of modern technology. We aim to educate good usage and positively encourage learning through safe interaction with a range of tablet and online technologies.

 

However, with the proliferation of mobile services online safety is more apparent than ever before. To this end, please find below a selection of online resources for pupils, parents and staff alike. The sites listed below are by no means exhaustive but do give a great introduction to online safety.  We hope you will find them useful to engage you and your child in constructive conversation about online safety.

 

Our designated member of staff for Online Safety is Mr D Kidman.
