We’re kicking off the school year with Safer Internet Day on 7th February 2023 as part of our whole school approach to online safety. 

Safer Internet Day is a global event that brings together communities, families, schools and organisations from more than 180 countries to help create safer online spaces. This important campaign is celebrating its 20 year anniversary in 2023, so it's a good time to reflect on the past two decades, as well as look towards the future. The world is more connected than ever before, making online safety awareness even more important. That’s why the 2023 campaign is encouraging everyone to Connect, Reflect, Protect:

• Connect safely and with purpose – by keeping apps and devices secure and using social media in positive ways.
• Reflect before we act – by taking a moment to consider how what we do and say online may affect others.
• Protect ourselves by taking action – by telling family, friends or colleagues about eSafety and how we can help.
