    WITH A HEART

    Our number one goal is to make North Ealing Primary School a great and safe place to be and that includes when you are online. These are six simple tips we share with the children in half-termly assemblies to help them stay safe online when they’re using technology.

    SMART WITH A HEART

    ‘S’ IS FOR SAFE

    Keep your personal information safe. When chatting or posting online don’t give away things like your full name, password or home address. Remember personal information can be seen in images and videos you share too. Keep them safe to keep yourself safe.

    ‘M’ IS FOR MEET

    Meeting up with someone you only know online, even a friend of a friend, can be dangerous as this person is still a stranger. If someone you only know online ever asks you to meet up, for personal information or for photos/videos of you then tell an adult straight away and report them together on THINKUKNOW.

    ‘A’ IS FOR ACCEPTING

    Think carefully before you click on or open something online (e.g. links, adverts, friend requests, photos) as you never know where they may lead to or they may contain viruses. Do not accept something if you are unsure of who the person is or what they’ve sent you.

    ‘R’ IS FOR RELIABLE

    You cannot trust everything you see online as some things can be out of date, inaccurate or not entirely true. To find reliable information, compare at least three different websites, check in books and talk to someone about what you have found.

    ‘T’ IS FOR TELL

    Tell a trusted adult if something or someone ever makes you feel upset, worried or confused. This could be if you or someone you know is being bullied online. There are lots of people who will be able to help you like your teachers, parents and carers.

    ‘WITH A HEART‘

    Remember to always be smart with a heart by being kind and respectful to others online. Make the internet a better place by helping your friends if they are worried or upset by anything that happens online.
