E-Safety

We know that a lot of our pupils have smart phones. We have been approached by a company whose aim is to teach safe camera-behaviour early. When children are older they are more likely to STOP-&-THINK before sharing an unsafe image. 

The app SelfieCop can be of extra help for kids who need additional support. It encourages them to think-twice before taking or sharing risky photos.

The app works in 2 ways:

1- Automatic anti-sexting alerts appear every time the child's camera is activated.

2- Parents can be sent a copy of the child's photos & videos to check them for safety.
