Online Safety

At St. Peter's School we take the issue of Online Safety very seriously and on these pages you will find information that will support you as parents/guardians.

The internet is a fantastic resource, but it can also bring risks. We work with our pupils in school to help them understand the dangers and learn how to keep themselves safe.
