Online Safety

Online safety is an important part of keeping children safe at North Wingfield Primary School . We have extensive security measures in place in school, which are monitored both internally and externally, to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material. Any online safety incidents are recorded and managed in accordance with our online safety policy. 

Online Safety is taught to all pupils each year explaining and demonstrating how to stay safe and behave appropriately online.
