Outstanding Aspirations
INTERNET SAFETY
Online safety remains a priority for children. Please ensure that you child is only able to assess age appropriate materials. We are aware that some children have social media accounts such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter – guidelines for these sites have a 13 yr+ age recommendation so we would ask that parents reconsider their children’s access to these sites.
Schools have been made aware of some apps which may also be unsafe for children, these include myLOL, Tick Tock (previously music.ly and live.ly). Theses apps encourage children to upload pictures and videos and may put them at risk.
