It is imperative children attend these clubs in order to 
help them progress.

17. E-Safety
It is very important to keep our children safe online. As a result, there should be careful monitoring at home when they are using the Internet.
No child should have a Face book account, Instagram, Whatsapp or Snap chat. There are age restrictions on all of these sites. Due to the anonymity of these sites, children often are bullied and bully others, which then causes problems at home and school, so takes away from learning time.
Grand theft auto is an 18+ game and should not be played by any pupils.
Pokemon Go is an exciting game; however it can lead to extra phone costs as it uses a lot of data. It can be addictive and play should be limited to a certain time.
Children should be playing games appropriate to their age.
Children should be logged off computers, gaming, I-pads, tablets and mobile phones by 8pm. This then allows children to wind down and calm their minds before bed. Further to this, it ensures children are ready to learn the next day.
All the children at Lady Margaret primary school have access to DB primary. They should have log ins stuck inside their diaries. On the web site there is a rich variety of games, educational material etc.

18. Any other information regarding term dates etc 
can be found on our website.
The newsletter will also be on the school website too, so please make sure you read it every week to keep up to date with events and important information.
