E-Safety
The safety of our children is our top priority. At Marsh Gibbon CE Primary School, children are encouraged to use the internet - but to do so safely. We believe the internet is an indispensable tool that widens children's learning and improves their life skills.
Our vision is to make the children at Marsh Gibbon CE Primary School as safe and productive in the on-line world, both in school and outside, as they are in the real world.

Protect
Protecting pupils means providing a safe learning environment by using appropriate monitoring and filtering to control what children can access while at school. However, this only protects them while they are on school premises. Education around e-safety is the only way that, wherever they are, children know how to satay safe online.

Educate
Empowering children at an early age with the knowledge to safeguard themselves and their personal information is something that needs to be nurtured throughout school to see them into adult life. Equally, it is important to empower adults, particularly parents, with the right information so that they can identify risky behaviour, or mitigate the possibility of risk.

Respond
Responding to issues is both about ensuring children know what to do if anything happens to put their online safety at risk, and taking direct and immediate action as a school where incidents occur.
