Online safety presentation given to parents in February 2017. Content has been driven by responses of parents to a questionnaire so is about the top things they requested, Social Media, YouTube, Parental Controls and Cyberbullying. Lots of links and places to find help, especially around parental controls for filtering and monitoring on different platforms. Aimed at parents of Primary school aged children (5-11).

I created the 3 Ps of Computing (Be Patient, Be Polite, Be Professional) to promote positive behaviours during computing lessons. A3 and A4 posters explain why being patient, polite and professional is necessary in computing with a postcard sized reminder for pupils. There are so many variables to deal with as a teacher during a primary computing lesson, it is important to remind pupils of how to be successful whilst you desperately troubleshoot hardware and software issues. These posters give something concrete to direct pupils’ attention to help them wait or support others when for reasons beyond your control, computing activities can get a bit tricky. These behaviours complement Online Safety too as many of the pitfalls can be avoided by being patient (did I click send on my email to swiftly?), being polite (sarcasm does not come across well online) or being professional (have I stuck to the task or wasted the last hour doomscrolling on social media?). When I use these in the classroom, I am always reminding myself too!
