Whole School

In our live daily catch up, pupils were invited to share and talk about ideas for a whole school Safer Internet Pledge. This captured pupil voice and what they feel the key messages and learning needs to be in order to keep themselves safe while online.

Internet Safety Pledge

At Deal Parochial, we all agree to follow this Internet safety pledge.

We know that this will keep us safe online and will make us trustworthy internet users.

Only message people you know.
Always talk to a trusted adult if something online upsets you or you are not sure what to do.
Keep your passwords secure and strong.
Report any bad online behaviour.
If you’re not sure, don’t do it. Always ask for advice!
Check information carefully – is it real? Use other websites to check if it can be trusted.
Use usernames and avatars to help protect your identity.
Keep all your personal information private.
Only post kind, encouraging comments online.
Only meet people you know in real life – not those you have met online.
