Online Safety
At Bishop Perrin CE Primary School we aim to embed online safety across the curriculum.
Online safety is taught as part of our computing curriculum and covered within PSHE lessons. We strive to develop the children’s understanding of the potential dangers as well as the positive aspect of using devices with online functions. Children are taught how to use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly and they learn how to seek help or report concerns that they may have when using the internet and technology. All the children at Bishop Perrin School sign an Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) which is appropriate for their age. Children are expected to follow the guidelines whenever they are online and using devices at school, and hopefully adopt the same behaviours when using the internet at home.
Please see below the online safety schemes of work for each year group.

Acceptable Use Policy for Parents
We are keen to support parents by providing as much information about online safety as possible. This might include the offer of parent workshops or sharing online safety advice via our website and newsletter. We encourage you to explore the links below which provide excellent information and tips to help you support your child and family with online safety at home.
With some families now accessing online tutors to help and support their child with their learning at home, it is worth having a look at this poster with sound guidance and advice about engaging with an online tutor: Online Tutors – Keeping children Safe
You might want to use the Digital Family Agreement template to draw up your own family agreement on the use of technology at home so that everyone has a clear understanding of its use.

Safer Internet Webpage
Safer Internet Day 2024 is celebrated on 11th February 2025, with thousands of people across the UK working together to champion youth voice and engage in conversations about how we can all work together to make the internet a great and safe place.
Safer Internet Day is a great opportunity to focus on online safety with your child, whatever their age. This year’s theme is ‘Too good to be true? Protecting yourself and others from scams online’. There are a range of pages to help you talk about these issues and ideas with your child, no matter how much time you have and in an age-appropriate way.
