Online Safety

"The school’s work to keep students safe online, known as e-safety, is exemplary. Students know exactly how to stay safe." (OFSTED 2015)

The school believes that it is vital to give parents and carers access to useful resources so that they can help keep their children safe online. Online safety is a safeguarding issue rather than a technical issue - it is more about parenting and communication skills than technology.

Please take the time to browse the resources below, and don't hesitate to contact the school if you need further advice.

Priory's Designated Safeguarding Lead is Miss Howells - she can be contacted on 01273 476231 x377

We also have an E-Safety Officer responsible for technical advice, Mr Smart.

If you have a safeguarding concern regarding our students out of school hours, please use the contact details on this ESCC page.
