E-SAFETY INFORMATION

Worried about keeping your children safe online at home?

With the internet becoming an integral part of every day life, it is vital that parents and children are aware of how to keep themselves safe online.

At Bedford Drive Primary School we are committed to educating children and the school community on how this can be achieved and we have fantastic partnerships with numerous agencies who help us with this.

Please do not hesitate to contact school for support. You can also visit the THINK U KNOW website which offers advice on how to keep your child safe online at home, if you are worried about your child and how to report an incident.
