Online Safety/E-Safeguarding

The internet is essential in 21st century life for education, business and social interaction. At Crossflatts Primary we place great value on the use of technology to enhance learning and although the positives of the digital world overwhelmingly outweigh the negatives, the children and parents all need to be aware of various online risks.   Children need the support of school and also parents/carers to help build their resilience and guide them to recognise and avoid online safety risks and the education of pupils in online safety is therefore a key part of the school’s eSafeguarding provision.

Information for parents/carers

Your help is still needed to prevent children accessing inappropriate material at home by way of filters and parental controls. Take a look below at our extensive list of links and resources to help you with online safety at home and please do not hesitate to get in touch with us at school if you would like to share any information or require further support.
