We support our pupils' use of the internet and seek to underpin their knowledge of safe use and protection. Online safety learning is done through computing, Jigsaw lessons, awareness days such as Safer Internet Day, but also threaded through the wider curriculum. We understand that the internet is a wonderful resource which also poses many dangers. Just as we want to keep children safe in the home, school and community, we also want to keep them safe from harm in the online world. We provide our pupils with an awareness of how to stay safe online both in the school environment and beyond.
In school we follow these simple tips to stay safe: being 'SMART with a Heart' promoting being respectful whilst online. The pupils consider how to ACT SMART (with the ACT forming part of our acceptable use policy online).
If you are concerned about any aspect of online safety, please speak to a member of staff at Moorlands.
