Free Internet Safety Filter for Parents
While children are learning from home, they are away from the online safety and security services provided by our in-school filtering. So together with N4L and Netsafe, the Ministry of Education has launched www.switchonsafety.co.nz - a free way to block the worst of the web for students and families.
Through this site, you can follow the instructions to set up your child’s device for safer connectivity while they learn from home.
Remember, no technical solution is a silver bullet. Remember to complement this with digital citizenship toolkits provided by Netsafe and the information Allenton School has shared with families around digital citizenship.
