Safeguarding: How to Spot Fake News

18th January 2019

Our 'Jigsaw' topic this week is ' Never give up' and the children have worked on building their resilience to challenges they may face. Discussions have taken place regarding challenges surrounding school, friends, family and online. Online challenges in today's technical society is something children regularly have to deal with. Educating ourselves and them on how to manage online situations and information is the recommended action. 

 

The National Online Safety group have been sharing a variety of information for parents regarding 'Fake News'. For their first #WakeUpWednesday in 2019 they have created a free online safety guide to share with parents, carers, staff and children. 'Fake News'; the epidemic plaguing our social media timelines and influencing behaviours across the globe is something that is becoming more and more frequent.
