Social Media - Tips and Supports for parents

Tips and Supports for parents

As we continue to monitor and update our school policies-including our Cyber Safety Policy– we believe that it is worthwhile sharing some of our current reading and advice on the pros and cons of using social media sites (some of which are pictured below)

All social networking sites have their own version of ‘default’ privacy and security settings. It is important that you know how the site works and how to change the settings to protect your personal information. The link included here, from the Australian Government’s esafety commissioner, https://esafety.gov.au/esafety-information/games-apps-and-social-networking gives you access to step-by-step instructions to control your settings for each social networking platform.
