At  Micklem primary school we are fully committed to the safeguarding of our pupils and eSafety is of paramount importance.  With the ongoing support of you as parents, we aim to educate our children to make the right decisions to keep themselves safe online.  Throughout the year we offer a range of support to parents on the subject of eSafety through talks, letters and general updates.  ESafety is an intrinsic part of our computing lessons and at any time the children access technology.
