Online Safety

The internet holds huge potential for children and young people.  It is a fun and exciting place to explore, and it helps children and young people to learn at home as well as in school.  The internet and use of mobile devices are now a part of the daily social and educational lives of children and young people, and it is therefore vitally important that we are aware of the risks so that children and young people can make the most of the opportunities available to them while remaining safe.   

Our approach to online safety is based on addressing the following categories of risk: 

  • Content – being exposed to illegal, inappropriate or harmful content, such as pornography, fake news, racism, misogyny, self-harm, suicide, anti-Semitism, radicalisation and extremism 

  • Contact – being subjected to harmful online interaction with other users, such as peer-to-peer pressure, commercial advertising and adults posing as children or young adults with the intention to groom or exploit them for sexual, criminal, financial or other purposes 

  • Conduct – personal online behaviour that increases the likelihood of, or causes, harm, such as making, sending and receiving explicit images (e.g. consensual and non-consensual sharing of nudes and semi-nudes and/or pornography), sharing other explicit images and online bullying; and  

  • Commerce – risks such as online gambling, inappropriate advertising, phishing and/or financial scam 

If you have any questions about online safety at More House School, or you have a concern about a member of the school community, then please contact one of the DSLs.

More House School actively supports the Government's Prevent Agenda to counter radicalisation and extremism, through focussed education as well as effective school computer network filtering and monitoring systems.

RHC will review content in line with a sites' community standards and act in a mediatory capacity where content goes against these.

Children under 13 years of age are encouraged to tell an adult that they trust about what has happened and to ask for their help in reporting this going through our how we can help resource together.
