National Online Safety
National Online Safety Overview
“At National Online Safety, it is our mission to make the internet a safer place for children. We will achieve this through equipping school staff, parents and children with the knowledge they need to understand online dangers and how best to react should an incident arise.”
At Throckley Primary School, we are proud members of the National Online Safety Hub. This is a fantastic online resource that provides guidance and advice to parents/carers, staff, governors and children. The content covers every aspect of Online Safety, with specific courses, webinars and top tips for many different situations. National Online Safety Hub is a Certified School Programme and is a complete solution for schools to implement an effective approach to online safety. It has been designed by education professionals to meet the statutory online safety safeguarding duties outlined in the Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) September 2021 guidance.
