Safe use of the internet

 

Your students should be able to use the internet to its full potential with confidence and the knowledge of the risks.

10 Lane Learning wants to help ensure that any students using the internet follow safety guidelines to ensure they are not exposed to any of the potential risks associated with internet use.

There is a wide range of information and government based guidelines aimed at keeping children safe while using the internet. We have compiled a list of links to such information websites, and would encourage all children, parents and guardians to study these guidelines and follow the safety advice that they give.
