ONLINE SAFETY
At Castle Cary School the safety of children is of upmost importance; this extends beyond the school gates!
Throughout our curriculum we teach the children about how to use all technology in a safe manner, whether this be using the internet, mobile phones, online gaming or online privacy.
Commitment to Online safety
In 2019 we were awarded the 360 degree safe accreditation as recognition of our commitment to Online safety. This was renewed in 2022.

There is an effective online safety curriculum and excellent engagement with parents through regular communication, a high visibility of Online Safety around the school and a rapid response to issues mentioned by parents”
