Online Safety
Our Online safety Rules
Please remind your children of these rules when they are working online.
I will only use ICT equipment when I have been given permission to.
When I'm using a device I will only go on websites or apps that I have been given permission to use.
I will never share my passwords with anyone else.
I will always be kind and polite when sending messages.
If I find anything I am not sure about on the internet I will hide the page and tell an adult straight away.
I will always tell my teacher if something I am not sure about happens when I am on the computer.
I will always ask permission before taking someone else’s photograph or using someone else’s photograph.
I will limit my screen time (including TV) to no more than 2 hours each day to help keep a healthy mind.
