eSafety

We are living in the digital age and with this in mind internet safety plays a major role in our school life.
The use of the internet in school is closely supervised and controlled through the use of filters but it is really important that the children learn how to be safe on-line at anytime.
The internet, e-mails, chat rooms, mobile phones and instant messages can all be fantastic resources, if used correctly, but sadly can also be misused. We aim to educate our children to remain safe and how to respond to inappropriate activity and cyber bullying.

The following links have recent internet safety advice which contains useful information for both parents and children:

Within the link above you will find further links to child friendly websites that can be used at home to raise awareness of many issues that can arise when making use of the internet.
