Children regularly take part in lessons and assemblies about online safety. In February, a representative from Barnet held an assembly for children in Year 1 & 2 and talked to them about staying safe online. She also held a workshop for parents to help support families to stay online.
Here are some pictures from the events as well as the information that was shared with parents. There are helpful live links within the presentation.
