Online Safety

Online Safety is an important part of keeping children safe at Broke Hall School. We have measures in place in school, to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material. Any online safety incidents are recorded and managed in accordance with our Online Safety and Acceptable Use Policy.

Online Safety is taught to all pupils as part of the computing curriculum, explaining and demonstrating how to stay safe and behave appropriately online.

We can only be successful in keeping children safe online if we work with parents to ensure the online safety message is consistent. It is important that parents speak to their children about how they can keep safe and behave appropriately online.
