We love technology, and all the benefits that technology brings when used correctly. Educating children on how to stay safe online is a fundamental part of what we do here at Wrenthorpe.
We firmly believe that technology is a fantastic tool, when used correctly. Online Safety is embedded not just in our Computing curriculum, but across a wide range of subjects, assemblies and dad-to-day life at school. We also try work to support parents as much as we possibly can in keeping their children safe. We hold regular online safety lessons for our children throughout the year, and provide regular information and support for our parents. You can find further information below.
