Internet Safety

 

At Carlton Junior & Infant School we want staff, children, parents and carers to create a school community that embraces the use of new technologies. We promote the use of ICT to enhance learning and thinking and teach all the children how to keep themselves safe. All adults in school ensure that pupils know how to report incidents and problems confidently and straight away.

At home, many children use computers to play games and learn. We want to encourage you to ensure children are supervised at all times at home, especially when accessing the internet. We can only be successful in keeping children safe online if we work with parents to ensure the e-Safety message is consistent. It is important that parents speak to their children about how they can keep safe and behave appropriately online.

Please view the video and links below to find helpful tips and information on how you can help keep your children safe on the internet.

It’s essential to be realistic - banning the internet or technology will not work and it often makes a child less likely to report a problem. Education around safe use is essential.
