Online Safety
Wherever possible, having computers/gaming consoles in communal areas of the house, leaving phones and tablets downstairs at bedtime, monitoring the time spent and who children are communicating with is ideal. CEOP (Child Exploitation and Online Protection) is a law enforcement agency which is tasked with protecting young people online and where issues can be reported (https://www.ceop.police.uk/safety-centre/) and Thinkuknow (https://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/) is the educational platform from the same organisation, designed to help teach online safety for children of all ages.
