Safer Schools App
The internet, social media, video sharing platforms, and instant messaging apps hold a great attraction for children and can, if used safely, be of great social and educational benefit.
Unfortunately, these resources can also create a less-than-positive environment where children, through no fault of their own, may find themselves targeted by online bullies or more serious predators.
This guide aims to provide advice to parents, grandparents, carers, guardians, siblings, and children themselves, highlighting key things to look out for to stay safe online.
Internet Safety Guidance from Police Scotland
At Hazlehead ELC and in Primary One we use the Seesaw app to create strong home/school links, share your child's learning and keep you up to date with information from our ELC.
When your child starts nursery you will be given a unique QR code from a member of our ELC team and information on how to connect with your child's journal.
For more information about this application and how it is used please click on the link below.
A growing number of parents are concerned about the impact social media can have on children as they are growing up. If you would like more information about providing your child with a Smartphone Free Childhood this website has been designed to help parents like you.
oung Scot & Police Scotland have also created a dedicated online digital safety hub with information for children and young people to help them feel safe in their communities - Young Scot Safety – Young Scot
