Agenda
Ofsted‘Where the provision for e-safety was outstanding, the schools had managed rather than locked down systems. In the best practice seen, pupils were helped, from a very early age, to assess the risk of accessing sites and therefore gradually to acquire skills which would help them adopt safe practices even when they were not supervised.’
(Page 8, The Safe Use of New Technologies – Ofsted Ref No 090231).
