Throughout the school we have learnt about the importance of staying safe online. During our Computing lessons the children have created their own rules for staying safe whilst using different electronic equipment. These have all been signed by the children and displayed in each classroom. 

Children use the internet in school on iPads and Chromebooks to help develop their skills and further their knowledge in a different way. All websites we use at school are child friendly and will also include software that may be used as part of your child's homework. 

Always be careful when you are using the internet. It can help you to keep in touch with your friends and help your education – but it can also cause harm – to you and to others. 
Remember help is always available at school if you are having any problems online.
Don’t be afraid to talk to your teacher or another adult at school.

Tips for staying safe online:

• Try to use websites that can be trusted, if you aren't sure ask an adult. 
• Remember to keep your personal information safe. No-one online needs to know anything about you, they are strangers. 
• Think- if it seems too good to be true it usually is. Again if you aren't sure ask an adult. 
• Make sure you keep new online friends strictly online. If someone you don't know asks to be your online friend you must ensure an adult knows about it.
• Know how to use the CEOP Button and how to report it to the CEOP Centre if you are concerned about someone’s online behaviour towards you.
