Online Safety Progression Pathway

A comprehensive Online Safety Progression Pathway is vital in today's digital world, providing a structured and developmental learning journey for students in navigating and interacting with the online world safely and responsibly. This pathway aligns with modern educational standards and addresses the evolving challenges and opportunities presented by digital technologies.

The pathway encompasses key thematic areas such as Basic Awareness, Online Communication, Personal Information Protection, Content Evaluation, Digital Citizenship, and Safety Strategies. Each year group is introduced to age-appropriate topics that build upon their previous learning, ensuring a cohesive and continuous understanding of online safety.

This structured approach enables educators to deliver a curriculum that not only educates students about the potential risks associated with digital technology but also empowers them with the knowledge and skills necessary for safe and ethical online interactions. The progression pathway ensures that students develop critical thinking, become digitally literate, and are prepared for the complexities of the online world, both in their current educational environment and in their future personal and professional lives.

By following this pathway, schools can provide consistent, high-quality online safety education that equips students to navigate the digital landscape confidently and responsibly.

Mental Health Helpline - 0300 303 3972

​

Local NHS Trust, Cheshire and Wirral Partnership (CWP), has launched a new mental health helpline for residents of Cheshire West, Cheshire East and Wirral.

 

Open 24 hours a day, seven-days a week, it is open to people of all ages including children and young people who need urgent mental health support.

 

What to do if you need urgent mental health help:

​

  • Please call 0300 303 3972 and our dedicated local NHS staff will support you to access the help you need;

​

  • The helpline is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is open to people of all ages – including children and young people;

​

  • The helpline is now the first port of call for mental health help – it is operated by people in your local area who will know how best to support you. If you call NHS111 you may have to wait longer for help and will be re-directed to this local service – so call 0300 303 3972;

​

  • Please note, A&E and 999 are not the best places to get help for the majority of mental health problems – call 0300 303 3972 to be directed to the best local service to support you;

FGM

FGM

The Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) mandatory reporting duty came into force on the 31st October 2015.  The new mandatory reporting duty for FGM under the Serious Crime Act 2015, requires teachers in England and Wales to report known cases of FGM in under 18-year-olds to the police. 

​

It has been estimated that over 20,000 girls under the age of 15 are at risk of FGM in the UK each year, and that 66,000 women in the UK are living with the consequences of FGM. Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a growing cause of concern in schools.

​

FGM is child abuse and a form of violence against women and girls, and therefore it is dealt with as part of our existing child and adult safeguarding/protection structures, policies and procedures. It is illegal in the UK to subject a child to female genital mutilation (FGM) or to take a child abroad to undergo the procedure – Female Genital Mutilation Act 2003.

​

Information for children can be found here

​

Call the FGM helpline if you're worried a child is at risk of, or has had, FGM. It's free, anonymous and they are available 24/7.

Call them on 0800 028 3550, or email them at fgmhelp@nspcc.org.uk
