At Haddenham Community Infant School we make sure our pupils are aware of some of the risks to safety that are online and what to do to stay safe. We do so through computing and PSHCE lessons, assemblies and workshops.
We encourage parents/carers to talk to their children about how to behave safety when online, to ensure pupils remain safe when browsing at home. The children and parents are required to sign E-safety agreement forms and our Acceptable Use Policy. Staff are also required to sign our Acceptable Use Policy
We are committed to improving e-Safety not only in school but at home as well. If you would like to talk to a member of staff about any questions or concerns about internet use in school or at home, don't hesitate to get in touch. Also read the Parents' Guide to Technology published online by UK Safer Internet Centre.
