Description: In this short article, we explore ways in which parents can ensure their child is safe online.
The internet has allowed us to positively impact thousands of students online.
We’ve been able to provide some of the best tutors that wouldn’t have been accessible offline.
We care about the safety of our children beyond the tuition we provide.
And have a 100% positive track record with parents when it comes to internet safety.
It’s the time your child spends online outside of lesson hours we’d like to focus on.
For example, perhaps on social media like Instagram, Tik Tok.
Here are Some Tips To Ensure Your Child Is Safe Online
- Set Parental Controls (How to for Apple users / Android users)
- Make family rules i.e. Never reveal personal information or speak to strangers
- Keep devices in a common area to easily monitor your child’s activity
- Spend time together to teach your child appropriate online behaviour
Online access comes with its risks.
These include inappropriate content, cyberbullying and online predators.
Signs To Look Out For If Your Child May Be Targeted
- Spending long hours online, especially at night
- Phone calls from people you don’t know
- Mail or unsolicited gifts delivered to your home
- Your child turning off their device when you walk in the room
- Withdrawal from family life
- Reluctance to talk about online activities
Keep an open line of communication and make sure your child feels comfortable turning to you.
