Online Safety
Internet safety learning is an essential part of our children's lives today. Children use many different devices which are linked to the Internet and have the potential to be exposed to material, which is not appropriate for their age. Online safety is taught as part of the PHSCE curriculum and in computing lessons at Milford. Children also take part annual in Safer Internet Day activities.
