Online Safety

We know that with the ever changing dangers of the internet, online safety is a big concern for parents. To help keep children safe, we are providing links to the best websites that contain information and guides that you can use to ensure you are aware of the dangers in different aspects of communication and the internet, as well as ways to keep your children safe at home. Whilst using the internet at school, our system is filtered by Kirklees firewall.  In addition, we have a Smoothwall filtering system that notifies Miss Taylor should any unsafe searches be attempted by pupils in school.  We understand that filtering systems may not always be in place at home however, if you would like to find out if this is possible on your personal devices please click here.  Our DSL's linked to online safety are Miss Taylor and Mrs Hurst. Our Safeguarding Governor is Mrs E. Johnson.
