Digital Safety Leaders
This year we will be continuing with our Digital Leaders, however it will be slightly different. During the current climate more and more aspects of learning and life have become accessible online! So as we move to electing Digital Safety Leaders this year, we felt that it was important that the role concentrated on not only Computing but the safety of being online. We will meet once a half term adhering to the social distancing measures and discuss key topics. The application process is now LIVE and open to all children in Key Stage 2 can download a form below.
Aims:
The aim of this role is to share knowledge as a group and then encourage a real sense of confidence and knowledge, where they can then go back to their classes and share this knowledge with their class teacher and peers. It fosters a sense of responsibility and gives the children an opportunity to contribute to the development in not only their own knowledge but of others. The children are positive role models to their peers and younger year groups.
