Key Information

E-Safety

Our children are continuously reminded about how to stay safe on the Internet and how to seek help and advice if they require it. The following links will help both parents and children with e-safety advice and guidance.

The online world is rapidly developing and many of our children now have access to devices which enable them to connect to the Internet, take images or video and communicate with others. While it is important not to obstruct them from developing skills from using these devices, it is essential that parents support their children in navigating the online world.

Phone Safety 

Mobile phones can be a great way to keep in touch with people, share things and get information. But there are things that could go wrong, even when you’re careful. You might:

  • lose or break your phone, or it might be stolen
  • get harassed or bullied
  • share something you regret
  • talk to someone who isn’t who you thought
  • look at something you find upsetting.

Even if something goes wrong, there are ways you can get support. Whatever’s happening, we’ve got advice that could help. More advice can be found at Mobile phone safety | Childline and on NSPCC link below.
