I am Safe - Managing screen time and online safety

It’s important you keep a balanced approach to home learning. Time spent using digital devices for learning should be broken up with physical exercise and offline learning tasks often.It’s also important that during this time of remote learning we maintain safe and responsible use of information and communication technologies. This includes:

the appropriate use of digital platforms, privacy and information protection

respectful online communication

Please be aware when we use these online platforms at TPS your child is protected by the Department of Education internet content filters.  At your house you may want to consider introducing internet filters to protect your child as the Departments internet filters will not be active at your house. 

Attached is information for parents from the esafety commissioner.
