In Citywest & Saggart Community National School, we continuously promote the positive use of digital technology and endeavour to create a safe environment in which students can maximise the educational potential of the internet and devices in our school. This is achieved by:
the implementation and regular review of our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)
educating students on how to be safe online and when using devices
using a content filtering/monitoring system
We can only be trully successful in keeping students safe online by working with parents/guardians to achieve this. We urge you to:
monitor your child’s use of devices regularly
check the minimum age requirement on the apps and games they are using
remind your child of the importance of appropriate behaviour online
Below we have provided links(click on the print) to a number of guidance sheets for parents/guardians about games and apps that we are aware some children in our school are using. Many of these have age restrictions above their ages and these factsheets will explain why and how you can keep your child safe.
