E-SAFETY
https://www.nspcc.org.uk/keeping-children-safe/The use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is an integral part of teaching and learning at The Cobbs Infant and Nursery School. The children benefit from a wide range of technical resources, with online capabilities at the centre of their learning.
Within our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) the children will have access to their own area, class activities and the ability to communicate with staff and each other.
However, access to the Internet and other e-learning resources requires training, guidance and advice to ensure that everyone learns in a safe environment. Along with the training the children receive within school, we have compiled a list of sites which offer guidance to children and parents on the safe use of e-learning tools. Check them out for some great e-safety tips.
