Internet Safety at Home

 


 

e-Safety

Although the Academy teaches students e-Safety as part of the Computing curriculum, it is vital that parents/carers are aware of the risks too and what you can do to develop a culture of e-Safety in the home.  There are some helpful resources for parents/carers below, which we encourage you to read in order to help your child stay safe online.
