Online and Digital Safety
At St. Illtyd's Primary School we take online safety very seriously. Within school we are able to monitor pupils and make sure that they are safe when using computers and other technology. If you would like some advice on how to keep your child safe at home, this page aims to provide some helpful links for you.
At St. Illtyd's, our Digital Competence Curriculum continually supports children to discuss and consider how to stay safe whilst online and using digital devices. More information can be found by clicking on our Computing Curriculum page below.
