Good afternoon, This information may only be relevant to a few parents, but nevertheless, it is may become important as your children get older and begin using social media. This information relates to Instagram. Over the holidays, I have been made aware of children being targeted on Instagram and being emotionally tricked into thinking they need to help the person they are communicating with. This has been happening around the local area and the police are involved. Please read the attached information if your child has an Instagram account. The recommendation is that 13 is the minimum age to use Instagram but I am aware that some pupils have accounts. It is important to all of us to keep our children safe online. This information will also be placed on the school website under e-safety. Thank you.
