Computing including use of the Internet, e-mail, laptops, digital cameras, is an important part of learning in our school. We expect all children to be safe and responsible when using any form of technology, and children are closely supervised. Your child’s class teacher has discussed these general e-Safety rules with the class.
We ask that you support us in this and, in accordance with Hertfordshire guidelines, that you reinforce the importance of these rules.
Please discuss these general e-Safety rules with your child. If you have any concerns please contact the school office.
