Online Safety

Online Safety

Modern technology and the internet are wonderful tools if utilised correctly. However, they have an element of danger when using them and it is extremely important to remain pro-active to ensure that children know what to do to remain safe. The term online safety is used to cover this area.

 

At St Joseph’s we are committed to educating our children, of all ages, as to how to conduct themselves safely and appropriately when using online and electronic platforms including websites, search engines, mobile phones and social media.

ThinkuKnow

The internet has changed all of our lives, particularly our children’s. For parents and carers this opens up a whole new world of things to be aware of. For many of us, this can all be a bit too much.

You might be struggling to keep up with the things your child is doing online, you might wonder whether what they are doing is safe, and you might also be thinking how can I be as good a parent online as I am offline?

The ThinkuKnow website is really helpful and aims to make online parenting simple and offers many practical tips and simple guidance.
