E - Safety
Online safety is an important part of keeping children safe at Cavendish Community Primary School. We ackknowledge that technology plays a crucial part in today's world, even more so for our children and their futures as BRILLIANT CITIZENS, which we want to educate and equip them in preparation for.
Online Safety is taught to all pupils through our PSHE and computing curriculum, which empowers children to understand and be aware of how they can stay safe and behave according to our school values online.
The Cavendish Safety Protectors believe we should
Be KIND to others when online
Use the internet to POSITIVELY learn or play
Always show RESPECT
Use COURAGE to speak out
Take RESPONSIBILITY for our actions
Remember we are all different and deserve to be treated fairly: EQUALITY
We use the Project Evolve Online Safety Curriculum for a half termly assembly and follow up session, as well as Internet Safety Day and our Wellbeing Week...
All children take responsibility for their use of technology and all agree to the Appropriate Use of Technology Agreement (see below documents).
