E-safety is an integral part of children's education in today's digital world and is embedded in their learning at school. At Burradon Community Primary School, we pride ourselves on preparing our children to keep themselves safe online. We have comprehensive Computing Policies that address e-safety and we address any e-safety issues as and when they arise.
At School
As part of your child's curriculum and the development of computer skills, we provide access to the internet in teacher supervised lessons. The use of the web is hugely worthwhile and an essential tool for children as they grow up in the modern world. Our internet access provider operates a filtering system that restricts access to inappropriate materials. As part of e-safety specific lessons, all children discuss how to stay safe online and the dangers we face on the internet.
At Home

It has lots of amazing opportunities, but it can seem daunting and you may worry about the risks your child can face online.
