Information For Parents

Technology and the Internet can be fantastic – they can help our children to learn, to create amazing things, to communicate and to entertain themselves and each other. Our children are surrounded by this technology – it is part and parcel of their daily lives.  
 
Using technology and the Internet well is about using it safely and responsibly. Things can go wrong by accident or if behaviour isn’t sensible or respectful.  Our job at Moorcroft Wood Primary School is not to stop our young people from using technology, but to ensure that they have the necessary knowledge, skills and understanding to successfully navigate themselves through the online world, so they become good digital citizens.

We also believe it is our responsibility to help adults understand what they can do to help support young people in their use the Internet, be aware of the functionality available to them and routes available to share any concerns or issues they may have.

With technology also constantly evolving and new threats arising, we will use this page to share information about new concerns and what to keep an eye out for.  

Please see a selection of documents and links  designed to support you in helping your children stay as safe as they can be when using technology, including the Internet.
