E-Safety
Children have access to many online platforms in an ever changing technological world. At Lymington Infant School we support our children's use of the internet and teach them about age appropriate digital safety through PHSE and Computing lessons. We use the 'Education for a Better Connected World' framework to equip children for digital life. This focuses on eight key aspects; self-image and identity, online relationships, online reputation, online bullying, managing online information, health, well-being and lifestyle, privacy and security and copyright and ownership. These discussions help our children to build up resilience, develop critical thinking and become responsible users of technology. We also use the following books to embed key messages.
