Online Safety

There is an ongoing programme of education for the students across the key stages, which focuses on enabling them to keep themselves safe whether at school, at home or on line.  Training incorporates the ‘Thinkuknow’ materials produced by the National Crime Agency,  Child Exploitation Online Protection Agency (CEOP).

We use a series of monitor/filter tools both in school and outside of school on students' iPads, that both prevents them from accessing inappropriate content and allows us to see what has been blocked.

If you are subject to online abuse, exploitation or made to feel uncomfortable online by something that happens, you can contact the police via the CEOP Report Abuse link below and they will investigate:
