Online safety

The Internet is a really useful tool for children, but unfortunately it may also have dangers for them. Here are 5 Golden Rules to always follow:

1. Remind your child to NEVER share any personal information online.

2. Always have an adult in a room where your child is using a device.

3. Always be aware of what your child is doing online at all times.

4. Tell your child that they should always tell you, or another trusted adult, if they see something online that upsets or worries them and that they will not get into trouble.

5. Your child should not be online too much.
