E-Safety

Here at Perrymount we understand that e-safety has a growing importance in keeping our children safe and happy. It is something that is a part of almost everything we do. We know that the internet can be an incredible resource – for education, for inspiration and for friendship. However, we also know that our children need to be empowered to make safe choices online (as much as offline); that our children need to develop critical literacy skills so they can determine whether the information they see online is accurate or not; and that our children need to know how to communicate safely and appropriately.

Please see our policy for more information.
