Dates for your diary
We take this issue very seriously at Brookburn Primary. Internet and social media
safety is taught to all year groups at the beginning of the school year. We have
school-wide safety features, but if anything gets past the filters, students are taught to
switch off the screen and report to a member of staff immediately.
