Computing Pupil Voice

In Pupil Voice sessions, we value the views of our pupils and hold regular informal discussions with groups of pupils from Year 1 - Year 6 to hear what they think about each subject. Each term, we see a different group of children so that we get opinions and ideas from across the school. Our Curriculum Ambassadors support subject leaders at these sessions.

Can you think of some rules that you should always follow to help you stay safe when you are online?

"Some I think of are to stay safe online are to not interact with strangers,keep my identity and to not be offensive online."

"Don’t tell anyone your private information such as passwords and usernames."

"Having a adult nearby when you are using a device."

If you were upset or worried about something that you had seen online at school, who would you talk to? What about when you are at home?

"I would talk to the teacher and when I am at home then I will talk to my parents."

"If I was upset about something in school, I would talk to the nearest teacher (adult) but if I was at home, I would talk to my mum or dad."
