Internet Safety

The internet is like a magician’s hat. It’s full of exciting thing to discover and kids love it. But while they seem to know what they’re doing, sometimes their parents don’t – and that can be a worry.  That’s why the NSPCC and O2 have partnered to help parents keep their kids safe online.

A Parent’s Guide to Dealing with ‘Sexting’  It can turn into every parent’s worst nightmare – their child taking explicit or inappropriate pictures of themselves, sharing them with others via the internet or their mobile phone and losing control of the image in the process. This guidance will help parents work through how to deal with the incident and how to take control.
