Online Safety Policy Template and Supplementary Policies for Schools
Online Safety Policy Template and Supplementary Policies for Schools
This portfolio of school or education setting1 Online Safety Policy templates is intended to help leaders produce a suitable Online Safety Policy which will consider all current and relevant issues, in a whole school context, linking with other relevant policies such as a school’s Safeguarding Policy, Behaviour Policy and Anti-Bullying Policy.
360Cymru Policy Template With Appendices - Feb 2021 - final English - MS Word version.docxThese policy templates suggest policy statements which, in the view of the Welsh Government, would be essential in any school Online Safety Policy, based on good practice.
An effective Online Safety Policy must be tailored to the needs of each school and an important part of the process will be the discussion and consultation which takes place during the writing or review of the policy. This will help ensure that the policy is owned and accepted by the whole school community.
Within the templates, sections which include information or guidance are shown in BLUE. It is anticipated that schools would amend or remove these sections from their completed policy document, though this will be a decision for the school group that produces the policy.
It is strongly advised that sections formatted in BOLD are retained, as they should form an essential part of a school’s Online Safety Policy.
Where sections in the template are formatted in ITALICS, it is anticipated that schools would wish to carefully consider whether or not to include that section or statement in their completed policy.
