E-Safety

Technology is changing the world around us and offers our children limitless possibilities.  As our children's first educators we want to work in partnership with our parents and carers to teach children how to use new technologies safely and responsibly both at school and at home.

CAT E SafetyIn our Infant school we introduce the children to the acronym ‘CAT’ to help them understand how to use the internet safely.

Please encourage your child to tell you if they feel uncomfortable, upset or threatened by anything they see online.  Check content is age appropriate, we recommend going online with your children and becoming part of their online life - the key to safe use of the internet is good communication.

There is a wealth of information to help navigate the digital world.  We highly recommend these websites to find out about the risks in various games, apps and websites your children might be accessing and how to implement safeguards at home to reduce risk of exposure to undesirable content.
