e-Safety at Hill Avenue

Within our bespoke PSHE curriculum, and in partnership with our personalised computing curriculum, we explicitly educate children about the safe use of online devices, technology and social media use outside of school.  Children will develop an excellent understanding of E-Safety, what their digital footprint can look like and how to resolve issues of e-bullying and unkind behaviour carried out online (Digital Resilience). They will be taught how to use technology safely and gain an understanding of how information can be presented and perceived online (Media Literacy) and about the benefits that correct use of these devices can bring to their education. 

​

As the world is ever-changing and our children become the experts in the use of technology we ensure children's safety through regular updates for families and also through the school's 'Social Media Committee' empowering children to safeguard themselves and each other!
