At school, we regularly engage children in discussions and activities around online safety. We encourage you to continue these conversations at home
- Talking openly about your child’s online activities and the importance of responsible internet use.
- Setting boundaries and agreeing on screen time limits together.
- Encouraging critical thinking about online content, privacy, and digital etiquette.
- Using parental controls where appropriate to help manage online risks.
- Been seen, be safe – create safe spaces for your children to use devices where they can be monitored and supported.
By working together - and while we are in the privileged position of guiding our children at a young age - we can help them develop positive lifelong digital habits. This will ensure they grow into safe, confident, and responsible digital citizens.
