Keeping Safe Online

Online safety is a vital part of our curriculum, and we teach it progressively throughout the school so that children build the knowledge and confidence they need to use technology responsibly. Pupils learn how to keep themselves safe online, including protecting personal information, making sensible choices, and recognising risks. We also make sure every child knows who to talk to if they are ever worried or unsure—whether that’s a trusted adult at home, a teacher, or a member of our safeguarding team. By working together, we aim to help all our pupils become respectful, responsible and confident digital citizens. There are a range of useful links below. 
 
Our full Online Safety policy can be found here on the policies page. 

Reporting Online Abuse

CEOP helps any child or young person under the age of 18 who is being pressured, forced or tricked into taking part in sexual activity of any kind. This can be something that has taken place either online or in ‘the real world’, or both.

The CEOP Safety Centre has clear information and advice on what can be reported to CEOP, the reporting process and what will happen if you do decide to make a report. You can visit the CEOP Safety Centre and make a report directly to CEOP by clicking the Click CEOP button below.

If you are experiencing online bullying or something else online has worried you please speak to an adult you trust, or you can talk to Childline at any time on 0800 1111 or at www.childline.org.uk.
