The introduction of the Computing curriculum in England aims to equip pupils with the knowledge, understanding and skills to use information and communication technology creatively and purposefully. A key aspect of this lies in being digitally literate. Online technologies play a huge role and so, providing a broad and balanced e-safety education at each key stage is vital to ensuring that pupils can navigate the online world safely and positively.

At Lanesfield, we are actively promoting e-safety and it’s importance in this rapidly-changing time of technological growth. We have introduced a regular e-safety assembly on one Thursday of each half-term to promote aspects of the subject. The electronic world brings many wonderful advantages for the acquisition of knowledge, but also many dangers, some of which are not always apparent. Please find below links to sites which we think are very important to look at both as parents and children. Take some time to explore them and share with your children the parts that you think are most relevant to you and them.
