E-Safety

At Potters Gate, children are taught the importance of being safe, respectful and responsible when working online through regular online safety lessons, as well as our annual Safer Internet Day. 

With the increased use of the internet and online learning, we need to be even more aware of how to keep ourselves safe whilst learning. Children are encouraged to ask questions and share concerns when discussing how to keep safe online both in school and at home.

Please click on pictures below for links to support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online.

CEOP is here to keep children safe from sexual abuse and grooming online. You can make a report directly to the CEOP Safety Centre by clicking on the Click CEOP button if something has happened online which has made you feel unsafe, scared or worried. This might be from someone you know in real life, or someone you have only ever met online. CEOP take all reports seriously and we will do everything we can to keep you safe. As well as making a report to the CEOP Safety Centre, the CEOP Education website has information and advice to help you if something has happened to you online. Are you being bullied? CEOP are unable to respond to reports about bullying but if you’re being bullied and would like to talk to someone in confidence right now you can speak to Childline on 0800 1111 or talk to them online – no worry is too big or too small. 

You can find some helpful items here as guidance on e-safety.
