HOW TO KEEP YOUR CHILD SAFE ONLINE

 

Technology is moving quickly.

Did you know it took only 14 days for 'Angry Birds'

to reach 50 million users?

 

Have you got restricted settings on your tablet,

phone, broadband, even your Smart TV?

 

Parents/carers, teachers, anyone supporting the learning of children today need to ensure they are up-to-date with new technologies and actively look for resources to help ensure that children are using technology,

including the internet, safely.

Digital Footprint

 

“Growing up has never been easy, but today the virtual world presents a whole set of new risks.  Young people live in an always-on, social, digital and connected world, and it’s the only world they’ve ever known. While the internet brings amazing opportunities for young people to learn, create and socialise, it is our duty to help them navigate this online world safely.  Young people must recognise that every

click, every post, every purchase and every photo we upload leaves a digital footprint.”
