"The Parents' and Carers' Guide to the Internet" video launched

Child Expolitation and Online Protection

CEOP (Child Exploitation and Online Protection centre), the UK agency for protecting children that is part of the Metropolitan police, has released a new video today discussing how parents and carers can better approach the topic of online activity with their children.

"Today CEOP launches ‘The Parents’ and Carers’ Guide to the Internet’, a light hearted and realistic look at what it takes to be a better online parent. The show covers topics such as, talking to your child about the technologies they use and the things they might see, such as pornography.

"With interviews from leading experts such as, Professor Tanya Byron, Dr Linda Papadopoulos and Reg Bailey, as well as key industry players from Facebook, Club Penguin and Moshi Monsters , this online guide aims to equip you with the tools to have those tricky conversations with your children and keep your family safe online."

The video can be viewed online at the CEOP website here and is around 25 minutes long.

Much more information and advice on the internet with regards to children can be found at CEOP's ThinkUKnow website which we would strongly advise all parents to read to help them engage more closely with their daughters on the topic of online activity.

Any concerns or queries about your daughter's online activity should be directed to the school's pastoral team or the e-Safety officer and we will do our best to support and advise you.
