Childnet Digital Leaders Programme - online safety peer education logo

We are very excited to begin training some of our pupils on the Childnet Digital Leader Programme from October 2023. This programme equips young people to be effective Digital Leaders and helps to inspire the safe, positive and creative use of technology in the school and community.

Throughout the training and programme, our leaders will gain key skills and knowledge, including: online safety knowledge; communication, presentation and teaching skills; leadership skills; self-efficacy and confidence; and teamwork and planning skills.
Safer Internet Day

Our Digital Leaders presented an assembly on 'Online Identity'. They then went around each class teaching age relevant aspects of online safety. There was also a competition for children to create their own Online Safety Superhero. The children were creative and had some fantastic ideas.

Our wonderful Digital Leaders planned and delivered presentations and activities for each class. They also did a whole school assembly.

Digital Drop Ins
Children can come to speak to an adult or a Digital Leader every Tuesday lunchtime about any concerns or questions they have about e-safety and using the computers. They can also suggest Apps that may be helpful in school.
