Staying safe online

 

Here are some tips and useful links to help you to keep your children safe online:

 

  • Make sure your child understands if someone asks to meet them in the real world, they must tell you about it. If someone they don’t know who asks to be their online friend, they must ask you first.
  • Know how to use the CEOP Button and how to report to the CEOP Centre if you are concerned about someone’s online behaviour towards your child.

In Bridge Junior School we have a variety of hardware and software for the children to use. Children use laptops, iPads, digital cameras etc, as shown in the photos above, to aid and support their learning in a particular topic. We are registered with various websites where children can utilise online learning and have installed offline software. Additionally, we also work with the children to improve their digital literacy skills through classroom lessons and displays. Children use programming languages 'Scratch' and 'Kodu' to code on laptops and iPads in Computer Science.

 

Our onsite technician, Mr. Knifton, looks after our school network as well the hardware associated with it.
