James Southworth, co-founder at National Online Safety said: ‘Congratulations to everyone at Compass Primary on becoming a National Online Safety Certified School. By completing our training programme the school has shown its strong commitment to implementing an effective whole school approach to online safety.

‘It can be increasingly difficult for schools and parents to stay ahead of online threats and ensure both children and staff are safeguarded from potentially harmful and inappropriate online material. We arm schools with the knowledge they need to understand online dangers and how best to react to any problems.’

We wish to thank the families, staff and other stakeholders who also contributed. Raising awareness for everyone during a time when we are all reliant upon technology to learn, work and communicate with those who are important to us, is essential.’
