E-Safety

E-Safety has a high priority at Ashurst Primary School.  The school strives to get the best use of digital technologies by preparing pupils, training staff and educating parents in how to access the Internet and associated resources safely and securely.

Please see that 'Latest News' section of the website for up to date sign posting of a wealth of Internet Safety resources and the latest information.

Internet Safety Resources and further information, for pupils and parents, can be accessed by clicking the following links.  Look out  for our Internet Safety afternoons/evenings held in school and supported by our local Police Liaison Officer.

We are also part of the 'London Grid for Learning' with a wealth of advice and resources for parents on keeping your children safe whilst online.  Click the link here for some great London Grid for Learning GridSafe resources and advice:
