Parents/Carers
At Oatlands Junior School, we aim to ensure that all of our children recognise and are able to overcome the risks associated with using different technologies. E-Safety is embedded throughout our curriculum to ensure that children are able to use technology to support and enrich their learning, while being equipped with the tools to ensure that they do so safely and respectfully. Children learn how to keep themselves safe and interact with the digital world as independent and enterprising learners.
While E-Safety is best recognised as being a key part of our Computing and PSHE curriculum, at Oatlands Junior School, E-Safety is woven into all areas of the children’s learning as one of our curriculum golden threads, ‘Embed Safe Behaviours’. Be it accessing apps such as Maths Tutor and TTRockstars or using iPads to create stop-motion videos about the digestive system, our children make use of technology to support and enhance their learning in all subject areas. Because of this, the dialogue around how we keep ourselves safe online is ongoing throughout all curriculum areas, as well as within computing lessons and on specific days such as Safer Internet Day.
We are committed to educating the children in the risks associated with using technology and ensuring that they are equipped to avoid and overcome any problems, should they arise. In addition to our monthly E-Safety newsletter, we share platform guides and informative materials with children and parents/carers on a weekly basis. School staff and the local governing body also receive termly E-Safety updates to ensure that they are up-to-date with the ever-changing world of technology.
If you or your child has any E-Safety related concerns, please do not hesitate to contact Mr Morley, the E-Safety leader, or a member of our designated safeguarding team.

At Oatlands Junior School, we believe that educating our students about online safety is crucial in today's digital age. Throughout the day, students will engage in a variety of activities designed to raise awareness about internet safety and empower them to make smart choices online. These activities will include interactive workshops, discussions, and creative projects that highlight the importance of staying safe on the internet.
Our dedicated staff will be working closely with students to explore topics such as cyberbullying, privacy, and the responsible use of social media. We will also be inviting guest speakers to share their expertise and provide valuable insights into how students can protect themselves online.Parents and guardians are encouraged to join us in supporting Safer Internet Day by discussing online safety with their children at home. Together, we can create a safer online environment for our students.Click an image to view larger
