Online Safety
The National College
We take the online safety of our children seriously, and are delighted to offer courses for all our families, free of charge, as part of our work with this organisation.
The National College provides multi-award winning online safety education for the whole school community. They believe that when children go online to learn, to communicate or to play, they should be able to do so safely. Parents can join National College to help children to use the internet safely.
Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP)
The National Crime Agency's Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) helps children and young people. CEOP offers help if a young person (up to 18) has been forced or tricked into taking part in sexual activity with anyone online or in the real world. CEOP also offer advice and resources to support with the online problems young people might face, such as cyberbullying and hacking.
On the top left corner of this website you'll see a scared character, which is an easy-to-access link to CEOP for our pupils. At Watling Park School we teach children that if they are worried about online safety, they can click on the scared figurine and the link will take them straight to CEOP for support.
