Online Safety
Children at Flyford Flavell Primary School, use the internet on a regular basis as part of their learning. Technology enhances learning, and we ensure pupils get the most from it, by encouraging responsible online behaviour.
In school, we use a filtering system to prevent children accessing inappropriate sites. Children are taught online safety skills as part of their computing curriculum and half-termly assemblies are used to remind children of the care they need to take when engaging with technology.
Using technology safely is also embedded in to our PSHE and Protective behaviours curriculum. We aim to give children the skills, knowledge and understanding so that they do not become victims of abuse or exploitation when using technology.
Children are encouraged to take a balanced approach to technology and to use it in a purposeful manner.
