| Children and Young peoples safety on the Internet |
|
| These guidelines are for carers of looked after children, to assist them, advise, support and encourage the appropriate use of the Internet by children and young people. |
| The information and guidance provided should be read alongside Trust and/or Board Policies; which deal with the corporate responsibilities (for example) Information Technology and Health & Safety; Internet Access, E-Mail use, IT Security and Storing and Sharing of personal Information. |

|
| |
| There are a number of web sites designed for and targeted at children & young people, these are included in the text and everyone should be encouraged to visit these because they provide useful, friendly advice and encourage safe usage.
The final page of the guidance sets out some basic rules for online safety. Each young person should be given a copy of it and asked to agree it as part of his/her Internet access.
