Here are some tips and useful links to help you to keep your children safe online:
- Explore e-safety sites - Click on the video to go to the think you know site to get more information.
- Facebook - This site has a minimum age limit of 13, so our pupils should NOT be using it.
- Keep your computer in a shared area - Talk to your child about what they are doing online and, if possible, set up your computer in a shared area at home so that you can all share in the wonderful sites that are available online
