Online Safety

At Minchinhampton, we promote the use of IT to enhance learning and thinking and teach all of the children how to keep themselves safe.  At home, many children use computers to play games and learn.  We want to encourage you to ensure children are supervised at all times at home, especially when accessing the internet. Please read the Online Safety Newsletters below and these National Online Safety Guides  for the latest up to date information.

When your child is using the internet at school or at home it is very important that they stay safe. We teach your child to FLAG IT,  BLOCK IT & REPORT IT if they see anything on the internet they are concerned about. Your child would have been taught at school how to stay safe when using the internet on the computer, an iPad or a mobile phone. It is also a good idea to talk about these safety issues at home with your child.
