We are committed to providing access to educationally beneficial digital technologies whilst responsibly monitoring access and educating pupils, parents and staff in internet safety. Internet (aka online) safety is a significant part of the school’s wider safeguarding and anti-bullying strategies.
The Internet is a wonderful resource. At LCS, the children love using it in many positive ways to enrich their experience of learning. We want the children to be excited about going online, but we want to equip them to be ‘safe cyber citizens’. As such, we provide resources and training to support parents in supervising use of the Internet at home.
Each student will sign an acceptable use agreement for online safety at the beginning of the year and will be reminded of the principles of this agreement throughout the year at school. Parents are encouraged to promote internet safety at home as well; the acceptable use agreements can be found below for your reference.
