Online Safety
As a school we educate students on safe internet practices, such as protecting personal information and recognizing cyber threats. Teachers and parents must work together to promote responsible online behaviour and prevent cyberbullying. It is also important to consider further risks such as exploitation. Please see this signposting for support around these issues and contact the Safeguarding Team should you have concerns.

CEOP
CEOP helps keep children and young people safe from sexual abuse and grooming online. They help thousands of children and young people every year, as well as their parents and carers.
They can help and give you advice, and you can make a report directly to them if something has happened to a child online which has made either you or your child feel unsafe, scared or worried. This might be from someone they know in real life, or someone they have only ever met online.
