E Safety
Staying Safe online
We are highly committed to keeping everyone at Broomfields Junior School safe, including when using a computer. The following are our Internet Safety Rules. These are shared with the children, and are displayed everywhere that the children have access to the Internet. Understanding these rules forms a key part of our PSHCE (Personal, Social, Health & Citizenship Education) curriculum.
THINK THEN CLICK
- We always ask permission from an adult before using the Internet.
- We use the Internet safely, responsibly and sensibly.
- We tell an adult straight away if we see anything we are uncomfortable with online.
- We immediately close any web page we are not sure about, and tell an adult.
- We only e-mail people an adult has approved.
- We send e-mails that are polite and friendly.
- We never give out any personal information or passwords.
- We never arrange to meet anyone we don’t know.
- We do not open e-mails sent by anyone we don’t know (tell an adult).
- We do not use Internet chat rooms.
- Remember to be a SMART user when going online.
- When using social media (check the age limits) we do not send any nasty messages/images. We wouldn’t say that to someone’s face, so we don’t do it online either.
The children will also focus on eSafety as part of the worldwide Safer Internet Day campaign.
