SAFEGUARDING TIP OF THE MONTH: January
Setting Parental Controls
Innocent searches online can lead to not so innocent results. But parental controls can help keep your child safe.

IMPORTANT information re. Online / Social Media Safety: (from the Safeguarding Team)
Please find below a link to a list of Apps which can be used as a platform to access children; the list is not exhaustive and please be aware that new Apps are constantly developed which children and then potential perpetrators access. It should be noted that when we use the term “of concern” we, by implication, promote the message that anything not on this list is safe which of course is not the case. It is not the apps that are the risk but rather the people that use them. It is also worth noting that the minimum age is not necessarily a bar to children if they enter their incorrect age.
Please be mindful that these particular Apps are not the only ones where there have been safeguarding concerns; perpetrators utilise any platform where they can access children.
