Internet and E-Safety

At St Stephen's Tockholes, we want our children to be responsible users of the internet, protecting their own data and always using the internet appropriately.

We consider this a fundamental aspect of our safeguarding of children in our care. As a result, we work with all E-safety incidents inside of school and also issues outside of school that are brought to our attention. 

In order to keep our children safe, we educate them about the best way to use the internet as well as the potential dangers children can be exposed to. 

Every year,  our children complete an E-Safety unit in Computing to build up an understanding of what being safe on the internet means. It is also a subject covered across our PSHE curriculum to help reinforce our key messages.

If there are any e-safety issues your child or yourself is concerned about please contact a member of the SLT or their class teacher.
