Family Tech Agreements

A family tech agreement is a set of rules about how devices, like smartphones, tablets, computers, TVs and gaming consoles are used in your home.

 

Start the chat with your family and develop an agreement that will suit the age and needs of your children. 

 

These can be started with your child from under 5 years old.

 

It is really important to start the conversation with your child about respectful online behaviour in the home. 

 

Parental controls can be used to support your family's online safety when using devices that connect to the internet, such as phones, laptops, tablets, gaming consoles and smart TVs.
