Staying safe online

At Blackheath High we love digital media and new technology. We are lucky enough to have a one-to-one Apple device scheme, through which all students are given the opportunity to have an iPad or MacBook. 

We encourage our girls to engage with digital media to support their learning. They use it to organise their days, support their home and class work, access a wealth of resources on our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) and to use a variety of different apps. As a result, we take e-safety very seriously.

Delivery of e-safety happens through a variety of different media platforms, from projects to assemblies and workshops, to PSHE lessons. We offer advice to parents at IT information evenings and also through our VLE.

If you have any e-safety related questions, please contact Chris Alaru c.alaru@bla.gdst.net our E-safety Lead.

The NCA CEOP Command (formerly the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre) works with child protection partners across the UK and overseas to identify the main threats to children.
