Online-Safety
It is important that everyone (both children and adults) know how to stay safe when you are on the Internet. It is something that we encourage everyone to do during thier time at Elms School.
Staying safe and making sure our children are safe is part of our everyday lives. This concern needs to apply to all areas of our lives, and we need to ensure that is also applies to our use of the Internet, E-mail and mobile phones.
