The internet is such an integral part of children's lives these days. It opens up so many educational and social opportunities, giving them access to, quite literally, a world of information and experiences.
Whether on a computer at school, a laptop at home, a games console or mobile phone, children and young people are increasingly accessing the internet whenever they can and wherever they are.
As you would protect your child in the real world, you will want to make sure that they are safe whatever they are doing. Like learning to cross the road, online safety skills are skills for life. If your child understands the risks and can make sensible and informed choices online, they can get the most from the internet and stay safe whilst doing so – particularly from those people who might seek them out to harm them.
If you are concerned about any aspect of online safety and your child, please don’t hesitate to discuss this with a member of staff at school.
Watch this video for a detailed guide on setting up Jamf Parent.
Jamf Parent is an app that allows you to manage your children’s school-issued devices outside school hours (16:00 – 7:00 on weekdays and throughout the weekend). This app includes features to:
- Set custom rules using an easy step-by-step wizard.
- View a child's device details, including name, storage usage, model, and iOS version.
- Manage multiple children's devices effortlessly.
This tool is integral to our broader strategy for supporting parents and carers in ensuring their children's safety online.
