Welcome to this online safety guidance page, focussing on providing you with guidance on how to keep your children safe online. The page is designed to showcase some of the work that the students undertake to develop their knowledge about keeping themselves online, as well as showcasing some of the benefits of using the Internet too. The world wide web is a place for learning, entertainment and socialising. It is almost impossible today, to remove access to the Internet from our children. It is my view that children should be taught how to use the world wide web for exploring the world around them. The world wide web is a safe place for our children to use, as long as they know how to use it properly and take advice. Unfortunately, like everyday life, there are dangers on the world wide web but as long as you know what to watch out for then you should be safe.
This webpage is not a comprehensive service describing every do and don’t but it does give basic advice on what to watch out for, which should help us all keep our online experience safe and secure.
Some of the video resources and material/guidance on the site has come from the CEOP and Thinkuknow websites, which have much more detailed advice from Government agencies. I would strongly advise you to explore the content on these sites further, if possible.
