At St Peter's Junior School we understand the important but challenging job of keeping our children safe online and on social media. Here are some tips and useful links to help you to keep your children safe:
- Facebook/Snapchat/Instagram/Twitter - These sites have a minimum age limit of 13, so pupils should NOT be using them. WhatsApp - minimum age limit of 16.
- 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.
- Be Internet Legends Family Activities - Online Safety Activities for the Whole Family
- Useful Link - PARENT INFO from CEOP and Parent Zone
E-Safety Posters:
Why not put one up next to the computer at home and talk about it with your children?
