E-Safety at Home

The internet is a fantastic place overflowing with knowledge, games and communities of people, and, just like pupils across the country, the pupils here at Crumpsall Lane Primary School spent a great deal of time using the internet within school and at home. This is why it is important pupils at CLPS learn how to be safe when browsing online and becoming members of online communities. In school, children learn about E-Safety through a scheme of lessons along with assemblies and workshops with parents.

We also encourage parents to set up filtering on their home internet. To learn how to do this for the major providers of internet please see the links at the bottom of the page.

Apps and Social Media Platforms

As a parent, it’s important you know that all social networking platforms (or social networking apps) have age limits. Some social networks use technologies that may not be right for some ages, or engage with communities that are made up of people much older than your child.
If you do allow your child to engage with these apps, ensure you monitor their accounts regularly so that you can see who or what they are engaging with and that they are using the platform in a safe manner. Reinforce e-safety messages to your children and talk to them about how to behave safely when online at home, including social media platforms.
