E-SafetyIn your setting

04/10/23

E-Safety training.What will this session be about?

You will look at the provision of E-Safety in your setting and make judgements on this.

You will understand what the minimum E-Safety requirements are and the documentation that needs to be in

place.

You will begin your action plan to ensure your setting meets the minimum requirements but more importantly, every individual is safe.

E-Safety Self Evaluation

Activity 1You have a score sheetGo through this, and to the best of your knowledge, score and comment where you think your school is.

Activity 2You have the Ofsted criteriaBased on you score sheet ALONEGrade your schools E-Safety

Where to start…Using your DCSF school numberEnrol in the 360°safe-self review tool.

http://www.360safe.org.uk/Home(You will have immediate access)

This tool will take you through, in more detail, what is happening in your school and what your action plan should look like.

For example…1. Training for E-Safety in our school community 

Completed and integral to

our SDP/SEF

Ongoing; targets set in SDP/SEF

Not yet undergone training targets set for next

academic year SDP/SEF

Training has taken place for staff  

√I am being trained today and will run a staff meeting to cascade training. This is a part of ALL staffs PM targets

 

As well as ALL staff having had training, so have our parents and governors.

   

√ Our priority is training the staff, training for Govs/Parents clearly needs to be included in the SDP/SEF ASAP

We are leaders of e-safety in our community, a training resource for other schools.

   

  √ We are at the beginning of our journey, however, have put action plans into SDP/SEF to achieve being leaders in our community

Our children are very e-savvy and can also act as mentors.  

  √ We have a series of 6 lesson plans throughout the year for children, this is delivered through PHSE/Citizenship lessons

 

Our local community have been trained in e-safety when using the schools equipment.

   

√ We are at the beginning of our journey, however, have put action plans into SDP/SEF to achieve being leaders in our community

 

other e-safety factors: We don’t have any community access to our computers, maybe this is something we need to engage in… Home Access, Basic skills, Homework helper sessions, Governors training, VLE training for parents and Governors.

So what will Ofsted say?Training Some staff have been trained but there is little evidence of cascading information down

consequently:There is little impact on what the children know or understand

Training has taken place for most of us. We are starting to see results in all classroomsChildren feel secure when using ICT

We have had a parents training session and the Governors were trained too.We can see the impact of all the staff being e-safe savvy; children are very e-safe savvy

too; they know the pitfalls of using technology and are clearly avoiding them and asking for further advice

All stakeholders have been trained; support staff, governors, parents, teachers and members of our local community where children attend e.g. CLCs, Libraries, youth centres.

Children are e-safe savvy and confident to mentor beginners

When you return to school, the 360 tool gives you the option to add new contributors, in fact, it is essential you do this, as you are not in a position to comment on all aspects.

For staff training: the tool comes with its own video tutorials, so, if you are feelingA little out of your depth, direct colleagues to the video tutorials.

E-safety Lead

E-safety education across the curriculum

Cyberbullying

Training for adults

Adults conducting themselves professionally

Governors roles and responsibilities

Engaging parents

Standards and inspection

The legal context

Safeguarding issues are a limiting judgement

E-Safety is inadequate in your school if:• Your school relies on outside agencies (e.g. LA filtering) to

keep children safe• E-Safety is considered an ICT issue in your school and not

embedded in the safeguarding children arena• Your children do not feel safe• Even if there is general understanding of e-safety and children

feel safe. there is still the tendency to ‘lock down and ban’ rather than deliver a responsible use policy
