RATHCOOLE LAUNCH SAFER SCHOOLS APP
30th November 2021
Dear Parents and Carers,
We are delighted to invite you to download our new Safer Schools NI App, provided to your school by the Department of Education and INEQE Safeguarding Group. (Downloaded Safer Schools last year? This new and updated App replaces it!)
Did you know?
92% of children in Northern Ireland use video sharing platforms, with 53% using social media and 65% accessing messaging apps (Ofcom, 2020). If your child hasn’t already been using these platforms, they soon will be! Therefore, it's more important than ever to be aware of how to keep your child safe.
Please keep an eye on Class Dojo for messages, containing all the relevant details.
P6 and P7 will be accessing their own app on devices but this is not available for younger pupils.
Many thanks
Emma Quinn
Designated Teacher for Safeguarding
Principal
