Online Safety

During recent periods of remote learning and in our increasingly technological age, where children are accessing the internet at a young age, it is vital that parents and carers ensure that they are doing so in a safe way. In this section, you will find information and guidance as to how you can support this within the home and work with the school in order to ensure their safety and well-being.

Many of us know about the work of the 130 year old charity, NSPCC, that keep children safe by preventing abuse, help rebuild children's lives and support families.​ They have lots of advice and support around eSafety too.

Bexley Safeguarding Partnership has more information about Bexley Safeguarding including how to make referrals to the MASH team.

Childnet has the mission to work in partnership with others around the world to help make the internet a great and safe place for children. They work directly with children and young people from the ages of 3 to 18 on a weekly basis, as well as parents, carers, teachers and professionals, finding out about their real experiences online, and the positive things they are doing as well as sharing safety advice.

Uk Safer Centre and the Insafe Network has three main functions:

  1. Awareness Centre: to provide advice and support to children and young people, parents and carers, schools and the children's workforce and to coordinate Safer Internet Day across UK.
  2. Helpline: to provide support to professionals working with children and young people with online safety issues.
  3. Hotline: an anonymous and safe place to report and remove child sexual abuse imagery and videos, wherever they are found in the world. 

Parentinfo: a collaboration between CEOP and Parent Zone has a collection of articles, tips, expert advice and resources designed to help parents keep up with what their children are doing online.

Child Exploitation Online Protection (CEOP)  This agency protects children from harm online and offline. CEOP works with child protection partners across the UK and overseas to identify the main threats to children and coordinates activity against these threats to bring offenders to account.

Know IT All for Parents is a unique interactive e-safety guide for parents and carers produced by Childnet International. It's designed to really help you as a parent or carer keep up to date with how children are using the internet, and support them in using these new exciting services safely and responsibly.
