E Safety at St Mary’s  

E-Safety is an important part of keeping children safe at St Mary’s CE Primary School. We have extensive security measures in place in school, which are monitored both internally and externally, to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material. Any E-Safety incidents are recorded and managed.  E-Safety is taught to all pupils explaining and demonstrating how to stay safe and behave appropriately online.

We can only be successful in keeping children safe online if we work with parents to ensure the E-Safety message is consistent. It is important that parents speak to their children about how they can keep safe and behave appropriately online.

 

Keeping Children Safe at Home 

The internet is a wonderful thing! It can be used in so many creative ways to enhance people’s lives. There is no doubt that social media and gaming can provide wonderful opportunities for our children to enjoy life and learn.

How do you really know if your children are safe at home? Read the guidance below which gives seven conversation starters you can use with your children.

We have also uploaded parent guides for common games and social media used by the children. Pupil voice carried out at St Mary’s indicated that these are the most commonly used social media apps and games.
