I will ready this cybersafety use document.

I will discuss the information with my child and explain why it is important.

I will support the school's cybersafety programme by encouraging my child to follow the cybersafety rules, and to always ask the teacher if they are unsure about any use of ICT.

I will contact the principal to discuss any questions I might have about cybersafety and/or this use agreement and I am welcome to do this at any time.
