Internet Safety

Our children are growing up using the Internet with access to mobile technology. This page brings together some links for you to discover how to help keep your children safe while online and some activities for them too.

Social media is now an integral part of many young peoples lives. In fact, the latest research from Ofcom suggests that almost half of young people aged between 8 and 17 have a profile on a social networking site such as Facebook. While this provides an opportunity for people all over the world to connect and exchange ideas easily it is important that we inform our children about using social networking sites.
