2. Celebrating children, learning and leading.  Brave – to learn about new technology and how to use it safely.  Boundless – the opportunities with technology are endless.  Curious – the largest encyclopaedia is the www, we can find out any information safely.  Playful – fun, engaging learning.  Responsible – become responsible users of technology.

3.  Discuss what eSafety means to you and your family.

4. Sourced from Ofsted ‘Inspecting eSafety in Schools Guidance’.  Over one in three 3–4 year-olds use the internet.  Children who use the internet mostly alone comprise one in seven internet users aged 5–7, one in four aged 8–11.  Children of all ages continue to use social networking sites; 22% of those aged 8–11, having an average of 92 ‘friends’.  Younger children are increasingly using social networking sites as evidenced by the rise of usage by those aged 5–7 in the UK from 7% in 2009 to 23% in 2010. ◦ This is largely driven by sites like Club Penguin and Moshi Monsters rather than age-restricted sites like Facebook. However, Facebook remains enormously popular (96% of those aged 8–15 with an active social networking site profile use Facebook).

5.  Keep all equipment that connects to the internet in a family space.  Talk to your child about what they are doing online.  Discuss eSafety with your child.  Keep up-to-date with your child’s development online.  Set boundaries in the online world just as you would in the real world.  Know what connects to the internet and how.  Use parental controls on devices that link to the internet, such as the TV, laptops, computers, games consoles and mobile phones.  Blog – do not add information that can identify your child next to a photo.

6. Every parental control package is different, but most provide services such as:  Filtering – content to restrict access to particular sites, such as pornographic websites.  Time limits – restrict the amount of time your child can be online, or set periods of time where your child can access certain sites.  Monitoring – where you are informed of certain sites that your child is attempting to gain access to.  Reporting – where you are provided with information about what sites your child has used. https://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/parents/Primary/Tools /Parental-controls/

7.  The e-Safety agenda has shifted towards enabling children and young people to manage risk, rather than filtering/blocking and therefore requires a comprehensive and embedded curriculum which is adapted specifically to the needs and requirements of pupils and the technology with which they are exposed too.

8. EYFS Begin to understand the difference between real and online experiences; ask permission to use the internet; tell an adult if something is worrying them. Key stage 1 Pupils should be taught to:  use technology safely and respectfully, keeping personal information private; identify where to go for help and support when they have concerns about content or contact on the internet or other online technologies This means:  Keeping personal information private.  Stranger danger online.  What to do if they come across something worrying or upsetting online.  Positive behaviour online.  Rules to stay safe.  Permissions to take photos of others.  Safe search engines

9. Key stage 2 Pupils should be taught to:  use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly; recognise acceptable/unacceptable behaviour; identify a range of ways to report concerns about content and contact This means:  Safe use of search engines including how they work.  Understanding that not all content is reliable/accurate.  Positive behaviour online. Responsibility to ‘take care’. Respect.  Digital footprint can be seen by others.  Keeping personal information private including use of passwords. UPKS2 – restricted access sites, settings.  Risks – cyber bullying, unwanted contact from strangers, identity theft.  How to manage unacceptable behaviour online including methods to report e.g. trusted adult, report abuse button.  Cyber bullying  Stranger danger online – people not necessarily who they say they are.  Online/offline friends – including use of chatrooms/social media if appropriate.  Copyright

12.  Cyberbullying is bullying that takes place via technology. Whether on gaming sites, through a mobile device or via a social networking site, the effects can be devastating for the young people involved.  With online technologies accessible 24 hours a day, cyberbullying can be relentless. It can also intrude on spaces that were previously personal, for example at home; it can feel that there is no escape from it. 21% of 8 to 11 year olds have been deliberately targeted, threatened or humiliated by an individual or group through the use of mobile phone or the internet.

13.  Playing games is great fun and for many children gaming will be their first experience of computers and the internet. Your child may be playing on the computer on sites like Club Penguin, CBeebies, Moshi Monsters or Neopets. They may have a console, like a Wii or an Xbox – remember, most consoles connect to the internet.  Wherever their gaming takes them, it’s important that you’re involved in your child’s experiences from the very start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx xeOL4-xTQ

14.  Many of the services we use online enable us to create a network of ‘friends’, this is no different for your children. The games they play will ask them to make friends with other ‘characters’, and on social networking sites they have the option to ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ friend requests. Being a friend shares information.  Children are using Social Media more and more at a younger age despite most sites insisting that users are to be 13yrs+.  The school recommends that children under 13yrs do not have an account but if they must, please check: ◦ Privacy settings – who can view? ◦ Details – phone, email, location, school? ◦ Photos that are posted ◦ Friends – are they real friends? ◦ Facebook Chat  Leading by example – teachers, parents and older siblings.  The school recommends: - not posting photos of children in school uniform online as this gives away vital details alongside details already available on the website. - not posting photos of other people’s children as this can post a safeguarding risk. This is why we ask for you to only take photos of your own child at school events using a camera. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA prRXbQMTE#t=108

15.  Children will only have ‘closed campus’ emails set up at school.  These will be monitored by staff.  eSafety lessons embedded in the curriculum.  eSafety incident log.  Children are asked not to access emails at home until Yr5/6.  Children need to ‘take care’ when using emails and be responsible users.
