  • E-Safety

    Intent 

    At Kemball, our E-Safety curriculum and delivery reflects our school mission; 

    To maximise each pupil’s potential by enabling him/her to achieve as much independence as possible and to enjoy a quality of life which is both stimulating and rewarding. 

    Our aim through E-Safety teaching is to work with pupils and parents/carers to ensure all pupils can navigate their online life in a safe and respectful manner and that they are able to manage times of challenge online in an effective and appropriate manner. It is essential the curriculum is current and is updated regularly to reflect current trends. 

    Implementation 

    Kemball school recognises that there are pupils for whom the teaching of E-Safety would not be appropriate. These pupils continue to have E-Safety values modelled to them and the use of filtering and monitoring continues to be of paramount importance, as it does for co-pupils. 

    Pupils who it is deemed appropriate for access a half-termly E-Safety afternoon. The content is based on a rolling programme which is revisited annually by the E-Safety lead to ensure content is still relevant.  

    The topics included are built upon over the years at Kemball. There is also cross-curricular coverage with a particular focus within PSHE and computing. Where E-Safety issues occur, Kemball school believes in a supportive education surrounding this and ensures pupils understand the dangers surrounding their actions. In some of these instances, one-to-one interventions may be appropriate. 

     

    Impact

    Pupils at Kemball School are confident users of technologies. They are able to understand the dangers in the online world and are aware of strategies they can use should they feel threatened/unsure online. Pupils feel safe in school and have relationships with staff where they feel they can have difficult conversations and be supported by them. Pupils are aware of other avenues to report incidents such as CEOP and NOS website.
