E-safety talk enlightens Papplewick parents

2nd February 2011

Karl Hopwood spoke to parents on 1st February about how they could help their sons to use the internet safely and positively.

Parents who came to Karl Hopwood's fascinating talk were armed with a large amount of information about what their sons were actually likely to be doing on-line.

Whilst some of this information was worrying, it was undoubtedly felt that it was better to be well informed rather than ignorant, and parents were relieved to find that there are now many resources to hand to help them through this brave new world.

Some of the websites recommended by Karl as starting points were:

www.vodafone.com/parents (including their excellent Parents' Guide)

www.childnet.com

www.thinkuknow.co.uk
