Pupils at Monkfrith often use the internet as part of their learning, and have regular lessons on online safety to help them know how to keep safe online. Pupils in school are always supervised when using the internet.
We realise that this close supervision of internet use is much harder to do at home. However, if parents speak to their children about how they can keep safe and behave appropriately online then together we can help keep our children safe online wherever they use it.
