Technology can be a fantastic resource, but also a source of huge confusion and worry for parents. Here are some of the top sites giving suggestions for sensible (& safer) use of technology for you and your children.
We will also share timely updates about items that are in the news, or causing parents concern through Class Dojo and our Facebook page. We also highly recommend that you register for # WAKE UP WEDNESDAY, with the National Online Safety site for regular trustworthy updates of your own.

Our links are updated annually (September 2025), but our safety guides are shared with parents and families on a regular basis.
PLEASE NOTE:
We will often share advice about games/sites etc. that have a PEGI rating that is above the primary school age range, e.g. 12+. This DOES NOT mean that we endorse our children accessing these sites and games, but acknowledges that some children talk about these sites and games, and we believe that parents would wish to know the real dangers of allowing their children to use them or be in the room when older siblings are using them. It is also a very good idea to check the age rating of apps and games that children are discussing, and this gives you the opportunity to do that easily.
It is also useful for our parents to know that these games, apps and sites are NOT INTENDED for primary age children, and be able to check the details we have.
