Here at The Woodland Federation, we pride ourselves on nurturing children who are 'healthy, happy and hungry to learn', a major part of this is ensuring that our children are equipped for a digital world. In order to attain this we supplement our Curriculum and PSHE scheme of learning with Common Sense Education Digital Literacy.  The Common Sense Education curriculum covers a multitude of different aspects to keeping safe online, including:

• Media Balance and Wellbeing
• Privacy and Security
• Digital Footprint and Identity
• Relationships and Communication
• Cyberbullying, Digital Drama and Hate Speech
• News and Media Literacy

We recognise how difficult it is to stay up-to-date with the latest online crazes and games, this is why we subscribe to the National Online Safety Hub.  Every Wednesday the team at the Hub release new guides, aimed at supporting adults and carers to keep their children safe online - and also give children a greater insight into how games and apps work - This is called Wake Up Wednesday.  We aim to share these guides with our parents each week via our social media pages and by uploading them to this section of the website.
