Online Safety at Revoe
Online safety is something we all need to think about. Children are exposed to all manner of things whilst online and just like in the real world, we need to be aware of and consider carefully, our interactions in the digital world.
Technology can provide great rewards to those that learn to use it well. It's up to us to make sure that these benefits are received whilst, at the same time the risks are limited.
This page provides information on how we embed online safety across the curriculum at RLA and links to various resources and websites that can offer help and advice in dealing with the possible risks and dangers online.
Safer Internet day (SID), organised by Insafe, is celebrated in February each year to promote the safe and responsible use of online technology and mobile phones, especially among children and young people across the world.
Last year, RLA had a fantastic time taking part in a range of activities across the Academy. We began the celebration with an online safety assembly supported by our PCSO's.
Children in Year 6 enjoyed creating a password rap and as part of the #shareaheart campaign, children across the Academy created hearts to promote respect and kindness online.
Take a look at the gallery below to see their creations!

This year, Safer Internet Day will focus on how consent works in an online context and will ask children to explore how they ask, give, and receive consent online. This could be in their friendships or relationships, how they take and share images and videos or how they manage their privacy and data. We look forward to celebrating the day on the 5th of February.
