E-Safety

We believe that technology, when used appropriately, can improve outcomes. We are developing accordingly. It is crucial that we address the issues that relate to young people’s use of technology. The internet and mobile devices have become integral to the social and educational lives of young people. It is imperative that we work to equip young people with the skills to navigate this environment safely and responsibly.
