Online Safety

Keeping ourselves and our children safe whilst online has never been more important than it is right now. At Sharples Primary we ensure that Online Safety is embedded within our learning and practices.

Our Online Safety Lead Teacher is: Miss V Hamer

Our Online Safety Team consists of pupils from Key Stage 2 who meet weekly with Miss Hamer.

Our Curriculum

Online Safety is taught through discrete ‘Digital Citizenship’ lessons as part of our Computing Curriculum. It is also woven through the whole curriculum where pertinent. Assemblies and Online Safety Days are also used to raise awareness throughout school.
