Online Safety
Online Safety is an important part of keeping children safe at Cherry Tree School. We have extensive security measures in place in school to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material. Online Safety is taught to all pupils explaining and demonstrating how to stay safe and behave appropriately online.
We can only be successful in keeping children safe online if we work with parents to ensure the Online Safety message is consistent. It is important that parents speak to their children about how they can keep safe and behave appropriately online.

The UK National Crime Agency run the CEOP programme, designed to help keep children and young people safe from sexual abuse and grooming online. CEOP Child Protection Advisors are there to provide help and advice, and you can make a report directly to them if something has happened to your child online which has made either you or your child feel unsafe, scared or worried. This might be from someone they know in real life, or someone they have only ever met online.
