Online Safety

Online Safety is an important part of our curriculum to ensure the children are well prepared to manage the dangers and benefits of using the internet. Children are having increased access to the internet, smart phones and hand held computers. It is crucial that we all support children so that they can access these safely.

At St Mary's children are taught a discrete online safety lesson at the beginning of each half term to ensure that online safety is at the forefront of children's minds. 

School and Governors work really hard to ensure that the children have a good understanding of Online Safety in school however these messages need to be supported and backed up by Parents & Carers at home.

The following websites provide excellent advice and training for parents on Online Safety. Please click on the links below to view the websites.
