At Ford Primary School we use an online filtration system, this blocks out any inappropriate websites from being accessed. If there is an attempt to access a blocked website, this will trigger a notification to our IT department, who will then notify an appropriate member of staff at school. The notification will state who the pupil is and what they attempted to access or search for. This will allow the member of staff to follow up the notification and deal with it appropriately. 

Online Safety for Children

Reference: NSPCC

Talking regularly with your child can help keep them safe online. Having this conversation helps to prepare your child from an early age, so they can safely explore the internet and know who to speak to if things go wrong. It's also important to listen to your child and give them a chance to talk about what they're experiencing online, what apps and sites they use and who they're talking to.
