In school, the children will learn about E-Safety, each and every year, learning about the following themes:
Privacy and Security of Personal Information
Search Result Safety
Relationships and communication
Digital footprint and reputation
Self-image and identity
Creative Credit and Copyright

You can also view our Online Safety Policy here.
The internet provides a space for children and young people to communicate, explore, laugh and learn. There are lots of ways parents and carers can support them in doing these things safely.
'Let's talk about life online' includes ten key messages that should be shared with children:
1. You can always come to me if you need help.
2. What would you do if this happened…?
3. Remember that not everyone is who they say they are online.
4. Keep your personal information safe, and other people’s too.
5. Be respectful to others online.
6. Think before you post.
7. Remember to ask if it’s okay.
8. Remember not everything is true online.
9. The things other people post online might not always show what their life is really like.
10. Recognise how going online makes you feel and take a break when you need to.
