E-SAFETY NEWSLETTER FOR PARENTS:

 

Dear Parent,

 

We all need to be aware of issues of the children’s e-safety, that is their safety on the internet, on social messaging sites when texting using mobile phones and via information on the school website.  We focus upon e-safety during Health and Safety Week each year, but are aware that the promotion of e-safety is a whole year, joint home and school task.  In order to help you to back up this work at home I have copied on the next page some recommended sites for you to visit as parents, and/or with your children, to give you more information and support in dealing with issues around e-safety.  I hope that you find these useful.  You can also access the letter and links on our school website:

IF YOU HAVE NOT YET PROTECTED YOUR CHILD’S INTERNET ACCESS AT HOME YOU MAY FIND THE FOLLOWING SITES HELPFUL:

 

         

 

REPORTING

It is imperative that any illegal or suspicious contact with a child on the internet is reported to the police immediately.  You will find help and advice at the child exploitation and online protection centre, by clicking here.
