Keeping your child safe online is something we are Beech Grove School are keen to promote and this need to keep them safe online exisits beyond the school day as the risks of going online grow daily not just in relation to the risk of people whom pose a risk to children sexually but also the risk of radicalisation.
To help parents help their children become more resilience online we recommend parents initially taking a look at the following first 3 links below:
