Online Safety

As it became apparent that teaching online was going to be the norm going forward, it was thought that a more extensive and dedicated online safety course was needed. The course covered good habits for teachers (good password management, ensuring data security, etc.) as well as practices that can be taught to students aged 6-18 (not trusting strangers online, withholding personal information, and so on). To improve value for the staff, management also thought to include a certificate of completion that employees could add to their CV.
