Advice for Children to stay safe online: Use and follow the advice you have been given in school.

Remember:

Some social networking sites have a minimum age of 13 years. This is set for a reason!
Only use adult moderated networking sites – ones that mums and dads can check.
Tell a parent/adult if someone says anything online that makes you worried or uncomfortable.
Tell a parent/adult if you receive a message that is scary, threatening or rude. DO NOT respond to the message.
Do not send anyone your photograph or give out personal details such as where you live, your school.
Never give your passwords to anyone else.

Enjoy your time on the internet and stay safe. Remember to consider what is a sensible amount of time to spend on devices. Try to combine it with other things, such as reading a book, playing with friends outside, spending time with family or playing sports.
