At Sandridge we educate staff, parents and pupils about eSafety, so it gives all stakeholders of the school community a better understanding and awareness of how to protect themselves and others online.
Access to equipment and the internet is now very easy at home and at school.
The websites and help sheets below provide a comprehensive list of links and information about online safety so parents, and their children can decide what is right for their family when using the Internet and associated technologies.
(Please note that Sandridge School does not take any responsibility for the content or update of the external sites on this page.)
