At the Rainbow Trust, we recognise the importance of educating our children around internet safety, providing them with the skills and tools to live in a technological world safely. We work with staff, pupils and parents/carers to create a school community which values the use of new technologies to enhance learning, encourages the responsible use of technology and social media, following agreed policies to minimise potential e-safety risks. 

To ensure that we provide children with the skills to keep themselves safe online, we utilise: 

• Kiddle Search Engineto ensure that children are able to search safely and know the tools to support them when at home.
• E-safety lessons and discussions prior to every Computing lesson.
• The celebration of Internet Safety Day to further raise the profile of e-safety.
• Our PSCHE curriculum makes continuous links Internet Safety.
• Our Year 4–6 pupils have their own individual devices. We teach them about using them safely and work with their parents to support this with a Home School signed agreement.  
• We work alongside parents closely to further develop Internet Safety provision and understanding.
• As part of our Pupil Leadership Teams, we have Digital Leaders who help to run technology throughout the school, delivering support and advice to other pupils and further promoting Internet Safety.
