Online Safety
At The Compass School we consider E-Safety to be an important part of ensuring the safety of the children at our school. How to stay safe and how to behave appropriately online is explained and demonstrated to all pupils as part of our curriculum.
With the ever-changing world of social media, we have added a selection of resources for pupils and parents that may be of some use when helping to keep your child safe online.
