Talking to your child about online safety | NSPCC
Dear Parents,
With potentially more time spent at home on online devices over the coming weeks, I would like to share with you a few resources that you might find useful in keeping your child safe online at home.
Online safety is a core part of our computing and PSHE curriculum and is taught every year in an age appropriate way to all year groups in school. Amongst other areas, our children learn about cyberbullying, the sharing of images and privacy settings.
I would urge you as parents to find some time to talk with your child about their online behaviour and personal safety, to review your child's online usage with them, and to check your child's privacy settings. There is some useful information regarding online safety at the link below

It has never been more important to discuss online safety with our children.
Many thanks for your continued support
Best Wishes
Rob Litten

What to do if your child tests positive
Dear Parents,
Covid 19 test result notifications are often issued late in the evening and at weekends, when the school office is closed.
If your child tests positive for COVID 19 and the school office is closed,
Please notify me as soon as possible with a text to the school mobile: 07957063816.
Many thanks

Supporting Parents Helpfinder (Young Minds)
Times are tough for many people right now. Parents find themselves pulled in many different directions and children may be struggling being in the house for so much longer than usual.
A mixture of concern about COVID-19, work from home and children at home, along with a possible financial impact make for a stressful household.
Young Minds have created a useful 'Supporting Parents Helpfinder'. By answering six questions, parents can find out how to support their child's mental health during the pandemic (and beyond).
Find the help finder here:
