During a tutorial today, we discussed a few e-safety resources that I could use in the classroom.
My favourite two resources were: www.kidrex.org - A 'kid friendly' search engine which does not accept adult search terms, and only produces child-orientated websites as results. This could be used in school, and recommended to parents. It would help to ensure e-safety during research lessons, and could be implemented across a whole school. 'Being Respectful Online' - video advice for children in KS2, explaining how to be 'polite and friendly' on the internet, and how to avoid any potential issues. I do not like the use of the word 'naughty', but it is nice to see some online content which explains to children that they also have a responsibility online. Most e-safety content relates to issues such as grooming, privacy and bullying, and it is refreshing to see something different.
