It can be difficult to know how to start talking to your child about what they're doing online or who they might be speaking to. But talking regularly, like you would about their day at school, will help your child feel relaxed and meanthat when they do have any worries, they're more likely to come and speak to you. The following link will take you to the NSPCC online safety website which provides a range of advice on how to support your child at home. Topics include:
E-Safety Workshop Presentation
E-Safety - Managing Screen Time
