Online Safety at Tallis
We talk with our students in lessons, assemblies and tutor times about how they can stay safe online. They are generally aware of the risks but, as we know, they can still make mistakes from time to time. It is therefore important that there are good links between school and home. This page provides useful information for you on a range of topics that affect young people.
If you have any questions or wish to discuss a concern then please contact your child's head of year or email: eSafety@thomastallis.org.uk.

It is important to check that any online teaching support or resources you use are from a reputable organisation/individual who can provide evidence that they are safe and, in the case of tutoring, can be trusted to have access to children.
