Alan Mackenzie Online Safety Weekly Update

Every week e-safety adviser Alan Mackenzie sends me weekly updates. They are useful teaching resources but also parent guides to keep you up to date with current trends.

Here is this week’s tip:

For Parents – Layering Up for Online safety

PArent online support - layer-up parental controls

Protecting children and mitigating risk at home doesn’t just mean applying a filter and changing a few app settings, it needs a layered approach, and this is where the Internet Matters ‘Layering Up for Online Safety’ comes in. This helps and guides you to set up devices safely across networks, the devices themselves and the apps alongside regular conversations. There is a downloadable guide which will show you how to layer up in a simple, manageable way.
