Online safety during Covid 19 School closure: Keeping Children Safe

During school closures, children will spend more time online and on devices, so to help them stay safe, please find guidance and support from London Grid for Learning LGfL’s DigiSafe team targetted at parents/carers and pupils.

There are regular updates from @LGfLDigiSafe on Twitter and Facebook or on their newsletter. Any questions? You can email them too.

Every day while schools are closed, LGfL is publishing questions, tips or challenges for primary pupils to keep stay safe at home and on your devices.

Childnet have updated their parent and carer toolkit that will help you (parents and carers) have conversations about online safety. Their booklet ‘Let’s talk about life online’ includes ten key messages that should be shared with children:

1.    “You can always come to me if you need help.”
2.    “What would you do if this happened…?”
3.    “Remember that not everyone is who they say they are online.”
4.    “Keep your personal information safe, and other people’s too.”
5.    “Be respectful to others online.”
6.    “Think before you post.”
7.    “Remember to ask if it’s okay.”
8.    “Remember not everything is true online.”
9.    “The things other people post online might not always show what their life is really like.”
10. “Recognise how going online makes you feel and take a break when you need to.”
