Online Safety - For Children

The Internet can be an exciting place to learn, communicate and have fun.

You could be:

researching a topic
watching videos on YouTube
playing a game on a laptop, tablet or games console
messaging friends or family and sharing photos on a phone

At Crown Lane, we are here to support you to stay safe online.

Here are some links and resources to help you get started!

Unsure about something online?

If you are feeling worried about something that has happened online or on your phone, tell a trusted adult. This could be a parent or carer.

You may have seen, received or have been asked to send a picture or a message that doesn't feel right. If it doesn't feel right, it probably isn't. Remember, it is not your fault.

If there is no one to tell, or you are still concerned, click here to tell our Crown Lane Online Safety Mascot and let the school know. An adult at school will call you at home the next day.

CEOP

CEOP helps any child or young person under the age of 18 who is being pressured, forced or tricked into taking part in sexual activity of any kind. This can be something that has taken place either online or in ‘the real world’, or both. The CEOP Safety Centre has clear information and advice on what can be reported to CEOP, the reporting process and what will happen if you do decide to make a report. You can visit the CEOP Safety Centre and make a report directly to CEOP by clicking the Click CEOP button.

Childline
If you are experiencing online bullying or something else online has worried you, please speak to an adult you trust, or you can talk to Childline at any time on 0800 1111 or at www.childline.org.uk/kids.

School agreement

In our first term back at school, we learn about the Digital 5 a day.

Youtuber Simply Luke took the Digital 5 a day challenge - see how he got on:

We read, discuss and sign a form called an acceptable use policy to confirm we agree to follow the school online safety rules to keep ourselves safe at school and at home when we are online.
