In terms of online safety and all the associated issues, we have a strong programme in our
Personal, Social, Health and Citizenship Education (PSHCE) lessons which cover all of this. That involves visits from the police who sometimes come in and speak to students about the dangers and indeed what the law is surrounding these issues. If children experience online issues then we aim to always get to the bottom of that, working closely with parents and carers. This is because in approximately 90% of cases, this is happening at home in bedrooms outside school hours. This is why we ask parents and carers to be vigilant and have clear boundaries/rules in place at home in relation to the use and monitoring of technology. When incidents happen in school, or have an impact in school, then we have a clear procedure in place which will often result in what we call a ‘repair and rebuild’ meeting. This is where a restorative meeting will take place to look at the harm caused by the perpetrator.
