E-Safety
Would You...?
The best way to help your child to be safe when using the internet is to talk to them and make sure they understand a few simple rules.
At Smitham, we use our ‘Would You…?’ initiative to encourage staying safe online.
This initiative encourages children to consider the benefits of digital communication but also highlights the pitfalls.
Children are asked to reflect on their own behaviour when using technology.
