The children at Holywell Primary School frequently use the Internet as an essential resource for their education. To ensure their online safety, all of our students participate in age-appropriate e-safety activities during the Autumn Term. With the growing prevalence of the Internet both in and outside of school, it is important to protect our learners from potential harm. As our world continues to change and evolve, children are increasingly exposed to various forms of media and information, making it vital that we take steps to keep them safe.
How Parents and Carers can help:
One of the most important messages that children should be taught is to keep new online friends strictly online. If someone they don't know asks to be their online friend, they must ask for permission first. Moreover, if someone they do not know asks to meet them in the real world, they must tell you about it immediately.
It is crucial to know how to use the CEOP Button and report to the CEOP Centre if you are worried about someone's online behaviour towards your child.
