Staying Safe Online
This half term, our focus has been on having safe online relationships and improving our digital well-being. This empowers children to become responsible internet users who can navigate the online world safely.
Authorship of Work in Reception
In Reception, pupils have been working on knowing that their work belongs to them by recognising their names and writing their names on work that they have created. They have also shared information about their homes and families and discussed who they can safely share this information with.
Understanding Digital Safety in Year 2
In Year 2, students learned about staying safe online by understanding simple rules for using technology in different places. They talked about how following these rules can help them. The emphasis went beyond simply remembering the rules; it aimed at ensuring a deep understanding of why these rules are important, making them smart about using computers and devices. Through discussions, they figured out how these rules keep them safe in the digital world that keeps changing.
Safety Scenarios in Year 3
In Year 3, students have been learning about online safety, including how to stay safe, recognising potential risks, identifying harmful content and learning strategies to handle such situations. They have built on what they learned in Year 2 by emphasizing the importance of following online rules.
Deeper Delve of e-Safety with Year 6
In Year 6, pupils have been delving deeper into their understanding of e-safety. Children thoroughly explored a list of scenarios and came up with ideas about how they could stay safe if they found themselves in potentially dangerous or uncomfortable situations. Not only did they share their existing knowledge, but they also detailed how they planned to incorporate the newly acquired strategies into their day to day lives to stay safe. As part of their continued learning, Year 6 received a visit from a local police officer who delivered a comprehensive presentation on maintaining safety in the realm of social media.
