At Parkhead Community Primary School, keeping children safe is our highest priority, both in school and online. Technology plays an important role in learning and communication, offering many exciting opportunities for children to explore, create and connect. However, we also recognise the importance of helping children develop the knowledge and skills they need to use the internet safely, responsibly and confidently.

Through our curriculum, assemblies, visitors and regular classroom discussions, we teach pupils how to stay safe online, make positive choices and know what to do if something makes them feel worried or uncomfortable. We also work closely with parents and carers, recognising that online safety is a shared responsibility between school and home.

This page provides useful information, guidance and resources to help families support children in navigating the online world safely. Together, we can help ensure that all children enjoy the benefits of technology while staying safe, respectful and responsible online.
