As technology continues to advance and change at an increasing rate; with new gadgets, websites, games and apps appearing daily. At White Ash school we aim to provide a curriculum that educates our learners, in all pathways, not only to be safe whilst using such technologies but also how it can aid in learning and communicating. 

Learning objectives in each phase cover; 

Self-image and Identity

Health, Wellbeing & Lifestyle

Relationships and Behaviours

Communication and Devices

The World Web

Privacy, Security & Ownership

See the below documents for more information. 

Children across school took part in a range of activities and an assembly to learn more about the ways in which technology is a fantastic tool to help us learn about the world around us. They also looked at how we can stay safe using different devices. 

Here you will find lots of information on how to stay safe, report concerns and guides on the different games, apps and devices our young people access today. 

Swiggle is a child friendly and safe search engine that will reduce the risks of harmful content reaching your child. There is a hand button which allows the child to cover the screen should anything they should not or do not want to see pops up. This means they can then tell the closest adult who can support and report.
