Responsible parenting and social media
 
If you set your child up with a Facebook/ social media account - for which they are not old enough to have - please be advised that you are responsible for any issues that come about from this.
 
It is not a school issue or school's responsibility.
 
Please support us by not allowing your child to access age-restricted social media apps or websites.
 
Thank you.
 

Did you know that approximately 59% of children have already used a social network site by the time they are 10 years old? Please be vigilant on what your children are looking at whilst online.

Omegle Gone (added 21.11.23)

There were some massive sighs of relief last week when, finally, Omegle was shut down for good. This one site, which allowed any person of any age to be randomly paired with another person for 1-1 video chat, was responsible for countless CSE incidents. According to an article in Wired Magazine the site shutdown was part of a court settlement after a victim filed a lawsuit in 2021 after being exploited when she was 11 years old.
