At Framwellgate Moor Primary School it is our mission to make the internet a safe place for children. We achieve this through showing good practice in our online safety policy and procedures including equipping our staff, parents and children with the knowledge they need to understand online dangers and how best to react should an incident arise. We make teaching online safety fun, interactive, challenging and memorable for all pupils.

Framwellgate Moor Primary School has also been accredited the 360safe Online Safety Mark for the fifth time.  The online safety provision was formally assessed by a team of experts and was successful in achieving the required standard.  In their findings they commented on how staff, governors, parents and students exhibit a keen awareness and commitment to staying safe online.  They also noted how our forward-thinking approach is essential for adapting to the ever-evolving landscape of online safety and responding to the changing needs of learners.  The Digital Leaders played an important part in achieving the accreditation as they were interviewed by the panel about their role and the culture of online safety in school.

Digital Leaders 

We have a conscientious and established digital leader group in school.  The group has representatives from across each year group and meets regularly to tackle online safety related issues.  The children act as delegates and class envoys to support discussions, collect suggestions and provide feedback for the class.  Some of their work so far has involved introducing SMART online to our children, designing an online safety mascot and having key roles in Online Safety Assemblies.  The digital leaders are currently working on supporting their peers to take the U ARE test before trying out new websites and apps.  The U ARE test helps children to realize that they are responsible for their actions online and building positive online behaviors to protect themselves and others when online. 

Safer Internet Day 

Here at Framwellgate Moor Primary school we jumped at the opportunity to get involved with annual Safer Internet Days led by the UK Safer Internet Centre.  Using the theme of, ‘Want to talk about it’ allowed us to celebrate all things technology and to think about any worries we might have about being online.  In assemblies and in our classes, we took part in a variety of activities aimed at helping us to have conversations about our lives online.   We wanted to share our thoughts and discussions with others and created a video wall of our thoughts and ideas.  Head over to our curriculum page to find out more. 

For the most recent Safer Internet Day we looked at how technology inspires change.  We thought about how technology has changed over time including looking at how the internet has evolved.  We looked at changes in everyday technology such as mobile phones and how the design, use and purpose of telephones has evolved.  KS2 looked at the arrival and impact of Artificial Intelligence will have on technology and the implications for change in the future.  Digital leaders helped share key points with children in assembly and supported our discussions.
