Online Safety is an integral part of children's education in today's digital world and it is embedded in their learning at school.
Technology and the way in which our children engage with the internet is changing rapidly and we need to equip our young people for the changing demands that new technology brings.
Online Safety is an important part of keeping children safe at Henley Green Primary School. We teach our children how to use the internet safely and responsibly and encourage our parents and carers to support us in this.
