E-safety is high on our agenda at school. We want children to be safe and responsible when they go online. Our Computing curriculum places emphasis on developing children's knowledge and skills to enable them to stay safe online. We would be happy to share any advice with you.
Parent Info provides high quality information to parents and carers about their children's wellbeing and resilience. In line with CEOP’s Thinkuknow programme, some of the content covers internet safety, but it all starts from the assumption that young people make little distinction between their online and offline lives and the issues for parents are often the same.

​We are delighted with our Year 6 pupils. Well done everyone.
