National Online Safety

In an ever-evolving online world, sometimes it's difficult to make sense of the huge selection of apps and games available to young minds. The choices are almost endless and it’s not always possible to know which apps are age-appropriate, which games are safe to play and just what content your child is being exposed to. Please clink the link below to access three handy guides for parents and carers with suggested apps and games that children might enjoy using to learn and play.

Online and Internet safety is a high priority for all children. The website https://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/ is an excellent one to share with your children. The website https://www.ceop.police.uk/safety-centre/ offers advice for parents. 

Using Instagram is popular with some older pupils at school. Parents are reminded that the minimum age for Instagram users is 13, and are invited to read Instagram Tips for Parents via this link:
