Online Safety
At Denver VC Primary we take the safety of our pupils very seriously, including their safety whist online.
We signpost children to age appropriate practical support from external organisations such as:
- Childline - for support
- UK Safer Internet Centre - to report and remove harmful online content
- CEOP - for advice on making a report about online abuse
Here are some useful websites for parents to help support children's learning and safety online
A very good website to help you keep your children safe on-line is the "Think U Know" website (see link below). There is also a link to the CEOP (Child Exploitation and On-line Protection Centre) home page should you need to report abuse.
Think U Know
The “Think U Know” website is brought to you by the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) centre. You may have seen some of their video clips on National TV recently.
There’s a lot of information here for both children and adults – parents even have their own area of the site! Teachers have the chance to train from the professionals and then deliver suitable training in schools.
