Starting the Conversation

 

Sometimes it is hard to approach the subject of your child's online life with them and is almost a taboo in some households.  The NSPCC has a range of very useful resources for families and children.  A good one to start with is “Online life and offline life is just life” which is short but gives a starting point for conversations at an age-appropriate level.  Remember to put in all of the relevant age restrictions on any new devices!

However, unfortunately, there were also a lot of negative and hate filled messages shared online and offline directed towards Black players.’

 

This week children have been support with discussions following Summer Online Safety Assembly and how we live out school values of Care, Respect and Self-Control when using the internet.
