Safer Internet Day 2026 – Learning Together for a Safer Digital Future

This week, our whole school joined millions of children across the country in celebrating Safer Internet Day 2026. The theme this year focuses on helping young people use technology responsibly, especially as new tools—like artificial intelligence—become a bigger part of everyday life.

To kick off our learning, the children took part in the BBC Live Lesson, which explored how to stay safe, make thoughtful choices online and recognise when something doesn’t seem quite right. The interactive format kept pupils engaged, and they particularly enjoyed the real-life scenarios that helped them think about how to be kind and responsible digital citizens.

We also held a whole-school assembly dedicated to the safe and sensible use of AI. Together, we discussed what AI is, how it can be helpful, and—most importantly—how to use it safely. Pupils learned how AI tools work, why it’s important not to share personal information, and how to seek help from a trusted adult if something online makes them feel unsure.

Thank you for continuing to support safe and positive online habits at home. By working together, we can help our children navigate the digital world with confidence and care.
