Online Safety Tips at Whitburn Village Primary
As a community focused on the well-being and development of our children, Whitburn Village Primary is committed to ensuring the online safety of all our pupils. The digital world offers countless opportunities for learning and growth; however, it also presents certain risks that we, as parents and educators, need to manage. We encourage all parents to engage actively with their children's online activities. This includes understanding the websites they visit, the apps they use, and the people they are interacting with online.
To support you in safeguarding your children, we provide regular updates on safe internet practices and organise workshops that detail strategies for monitoring and guiding your child's online presence. It is crucial to maintain open lines of communication with your children about the benefits and dangers of the internet. By fostering an environment of trust and awareness, we can work together to ensure that our children can explore the digital world safely and responsibly.
We find the resources at www.thinkuknow.co.uk/teachers/resources/ are really useful to share with your child and help raise awareness of online safety. Registering is free and easy. Click on the link below.
