--- title: "E-Safety" url: "https://waterside-primary-school.schudio.com/our-inspiring-curriculum/personal-development/e-safety" school: "Waterside Primary School" --- # E-Safety At Waterside Primary School, we recognise the importance of safeguarding children from potentially harmful and inappropriate online material, and we understand that technology is a significant component in many safeguarding and wellbeing issues. We believe that the Internet and other digital technologies are powerful resources which can enhance and potentially transform teaching and learning when used effectively and appropriately. The Internet is an essential element of 21st century life for education, business and social interaction. The school provides pupils with opportunities to use the Internet for research, remote learning and online communication, along with developing the skills necessary to access, analyse and evaluate them safely. The Internet supports the professional work of staff and enhances the school’s management information and business administration systems. Safe access to the Internet is necessary for staff and pupils. It is an entitlement for all helping develop a responsible and mature approach to accessing and managing information. The aim of our policy is to help ensure safe responsible use of ICT and the Internet. - E-Safety Overview - E-Safety Curriculum - E-Safety at Waterside ![](https://waterside-primary-school.schudio.com/images/images/under_construction_PNG7.png) ![](https://waterside-primary-school.schudio.com/images/images/under_construction_PNG7.png) ![](https://waterside-primary-school.schudio.com/images/images/under_construction_PNG7.png) [Embedded content](https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d2400.0541310576964!2d-2.170451783858812!3d53.01938987991181!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x487a69d4086c0711%3A0x19262908cd9219d0!2sWaterside%20Primary%20School!5e0!3m2!1sen!2suk!4v1670583840226!5m2!1sen!2suk) ![Waterside Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/waterside-primary-school/images/logo/waterside-logo-2-footer.png) **Waterside Primary School** Eastwood Road Stoke on Trent ST1 3JS Tel: 01782 234630 Email: [![Shaw Education Trust](https://files.schudio.com/shaw-education-trust-2/images/logo/set-misc/footer-logo-v1.png)](https://shaw-education.org.uk) **Shaw Education Trust** Kidsgrove Secondary School Gloucester Road Kidsgrove ST7 4DL VAT: GB 358822467 Tel: 01782 948259 Email: Company Number: 09067175 ### Newsletter ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Waterside-Primary/61559202505677/) - [X](https://twitter.com/watersidestoke) © Copyright 2022–2026 Waterside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://waterside-primary-school.schudio.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
