Online Safety
At Grange Park Primary School, we understand the responsibility we have as role models to educate our pupils on online safety issues, teaching them appropriate behaviours and critical thinking skills to enable them to remain both safe and legal when using the internet and related technologies, in and beyond the context of the classroom. We are aware of the risks that our pupils face in relation to these technologies and ensure that they are taught how to react in a variety of situations to minimise risk to themselves or others.
Grange Park Primary School has a whole-school approach to the safe use of digital technology and creating this safe learning environment includes three main elements: - a robust provision of network and internet security (provided by Telford and Wrekin IDT Managed Services) - policies and procedures with clear roles and responsibilities and a comprehensive online safety programme for pupils, staff and parents.
