The Internet is a fantastic tool which provides access to a wealth of information, services and resources. There are of course dangers too. At Sandhill View Academy we are extremely positive about the advantages the Internet can provide and we believe that students should be given the opportunity to use it responsibly. We do everything we can in school to keep our students safe online.
Our Aim
- Are you aware of the dangers your children may face when they are online?
- How much can you do to protect them?
