Stay Safe Online – Don’t Share Your Passwords!
Your school login is just like your house key – it keeps your digital life safe and private. Sharing your password with friends (even your best friend!) is never a good idea. Here's why:
Someone could change your work or delete it.
They might send messages pretending to be you.
You could get in trouble for things you didn’t do.
Cyber Safety Tips:
Keep your passwords secret – don’t even tell your friends.
Use a strong password that’s hard to guess (not “123456” or “football”).
Log out when you’re finished, especially on shared devices.
If you think someone else knows your password – tell a teacher or IT straight away.
Need to change your password?
Follow the simple steps here:

Let’s all do our part to keep our school accounts safe!
