Ambergate Primary Internet Questionnaire

Our iVengers are continuing to work hard to help us all stay safe on the internet. To help them understand what we at Ambergate need to know to stay safe online, they would like each member of our school to take part in answering their questions. Please click the link below or scan the QR code to start.

How Do You Use the Internet?

Always be careful when you are using the internet. It can help you to keep in touch with your friends and help your education – but it can also cause harm – to you and to others. Remember help is always available at school if you are having any problems online. Don’t be afraid to talk to your teacher or another adult at school.

CEOP

This year, we are taking part in an exciting project in which two of our pupils have become iVengers. Throughout the year they will be carrying out a number of exciting tasks and secret missions to help children, parents, staff and governors to gain a better understanding about how to stay safe online.

This is a very exciting role and we will be updating this website to share our progress. Be sure to keep checking this page to find out what we have been up to.

Our i-Vengers have begun to tackle online safety head-on and their first mission will be revealed soon!

How Do You Use the Internet? Our iVengers have a questionnaire for you tocomplete about how you use the internet. They will analyse the reults and then give advice on how the children of Ambergate can stay safe online. Please click the title above to start.

Helpful links to look at with your family.

Tips for staying safe online:

Make sure you keep new online friends strictly online. If someone you don't know asks to be your online friend you must ensure an adult knows about it.
Know how to use the CEOP Button and how to report it to the CEOP Centre if you are concerned about someone’s online behaviour towards you.

Families

We hope you will find the resources below useful.

As a school, we have found that the areas that cause most concern are Roblox and WhatsApp. We have added guides below to support our families.

Guides

For Parents - Family Gaming Database

When it comes to app and games reviews one of the resources is Common Sense Media who have thousands of unbiased and up-to-date reviews which can be really helpful for parents over and above age ratings. But when it comes to games specifically there's an equally great site which is often overlooked called The Family Gaming Database. This is a fantastic resource with a plethora of information for families and currently 3,485 video games and 197 board games already reviewed.
