Online Safety
At Cranbrook CEP School, we take Online Safety very seriously and through the curriculum our children learn how to stay safe when online. We have security measures in place in school, which are monitored both internally and externally, to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material. Any Online Safety incidents are recorded and managed in accordance with our Online Safety policy. Online Safety is taught to all pupils 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.
This part of our website aims to make online parenting simple and give you practical tips and simple guidance.
