Online Safety

Staying Safe Online

It is really important for our children to understand how to stay safe online. 

Please view our most recent Online Safety Newsletter and use the links below to get access to up to date information for yourself on how to help your family stay safe online. 

If you have any questions or would like some additional support then please speak to your child’s class teacher or a member of the senior leadership team.

We use Natterhub for online safety education

Natterhub is an award-winning, interactive online safety and media literacy platform.

 We use Natterhub lessons to prepare children for the online world by teaching the key skills that underpin positive digital citizenship. When pupils are taught to be safe, savvy and kind online, they are less vulnerable and more aware of their digital footprint.

 Natterhub badges represent the topics we will cover in our online safety lessons. Pupils are rewarded badge power for demonstrating knowledge and skills attached to a particular badge.
