Online safety
As we head into dark nights and cold weather, children may be spending more time online. There are many safe ways for children to play online, but there are also sites and apps which may need closer monitoring. Our e-safety page has a range of parent guides to some of the most commonly used apps and games: E-safety | Old Dalby Church of England Primary School
The webpage also contains information about monitoring in-game chats and how to set up and review parental controls. Guides include: Youtube, Instagram, Minecraft, Fortnite, TikTok, Snapchat, Roblox. For further support around e-safety and keeping children safe online, the NSPCC has plenty of useful information: Support & advice for parents | NSPCC
