Internet Advice

Keeping up to date with children's use of technology is challenging for many adults. It can be hard to supervise what young people are viewing and creating online, who they are chatting to and texting, and what they are downloading. Many children have better technical skills than adults, however they still need advice and protection when using internet and mobile technologies.

The following links will help you to understand online safety issues and give practical advice on how to get the most out of the internet and other technologies and to use it positively and safely.
