Online Safety is an important part of keeping children safe at Southey Green Primary School . We have extensive security measures in place in school, which are monitored both internally and externally to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material. Online Safety is taught to all pupils explaining and demonstrating how to stay safe and behave appropriately online. We can only be successful in keeping children safe online if we work with parents to ensure the Online Safety message is consistent. It is important that parents speak to their children about how they can keep safe and behave appropriately online.
Staying safe online
The following 2 videos from Newsround & CEOPs Thinkuknow education programme, helps children to understand what constitutes personal information. The videos enable children to understand that they need to be just as protective of their personal information online, as they are in the real world.
