Coronavirus (COVID-19) E-Safety
Over the coming weeks, our children are bound to spend lots more time on devices during the school closure - either doing schoolwork or catching up with friends. Therefore, on line safety will be paramount in the coming weeks and months. There are lots of ways to keep them safe, healthy and happy, and still allow them to use a range of technology.
Please can you continue to be mindful of your child’s use of the internet, especially of any social media apps and support them safely in keeping in touch digitally with their friends. We want everyone to keep safe during this time. Please do encourage them to think about online safety rules as they learn.
Please note that this page should be read in conjunction with the existing "E-Safety" information on the school website:
- parents - "E-Safety for Parents/Carers"
- children - "E-Safety for KS1" and "E-Safety for KS2"
