The Internet is an essential element in 21st century life for education, business and social interaction.  Our pupils are educated in the effective use of the Internet in research, including the skills of knowledge location, retrieval and evaluation. Through this evaluation pupils will be taught to be critically aware of the materials they read, and shown how to validate information before accepting its accuracy and understand the online risks of social media tools through the ThinkUknow programme.  You can find out more about online safety by visiting our policies page.
