Keeping safe Online
Here you will find lots of information about e-safety and keeping children safe.
Do you feel like your children are one step ahead of you when it comes to IT? Here you'll find lots of useful links to sites that can help you monitor your child's Internet use. Search engines such as Google have ‘search settings’ buttons which you can alter to restrict searches and filter out inappropriate content for children. This is usually a simple tick box wizard which takes little time to complete.
It is advisable to have some kind of parental control software. Some software can be downloaded from the internet for free. Technology will keep changing so it's important to keep yourself up to date!
