E-Safety

The Internet is managed by a worldwide, non-statutory collaboration of independent agencies that serve mainly an adult audience. Without appropriate measures, access to unsuitable materials would be possible and security compromised.  21st century life presents dangers including violence, racism and exploitation from which children and young people need to be protected.  At the same time they must learn to recognise and avoid these risks – to become “Internet Wise”.  It is Durants School’s responsibility to ensure that e-safety reflects the need to raise awareness of internet safety issues.
