Online safety - support for parents
In today’s digital age, children have greater access to the internet than ever before. While technology offers amazing educational and entertainment opportunities, it also presents risks that we as parents carers, need to be aware of.
Online safety is crucial to protect our children from inappropriate content, cyberbullying, and data breaches.
The internet is a vast, unregulated space where children can easily encounter harmful content or engage with strangers. Without proper guidance and monitoring, children may unknowingly share personal information, become victims of cyberbullying, or be exposed to explicit material. Ensuring a safe online environment involves a combination of parental controls, open communication, and an understanding of which platforms are appropriate for our children.
