Welcome to esafety at Prudhoe Community High School. The Internet is a fantastic tool which provides access to a wealth of information, services and resources. There are of course dangers too. At PCHS we are extremely positive about the advantages the Internet can provide. We do everything we can in school to keep our students safe online and to help everyone to understand how to use technology responsibly.

We ensure that:

  • All members of our community receive regular esafety training
  • All members of our community understand the dangers they can face online, how to protect themselves and what to do if there is a problem
  • How to keep personal information and confidential data secure
  • All of our young people are protected in school through the use of our systems, security and filtering
  • All members of our community understand how to conduct themselves appropriately online and respect others
  • Robust policies around the issue of esafety are in place, regularly reviewed and shared as appropriate
