Internet can entangle both pupils and teachers

It is easy to find examples of pupils who have got into trouble when using the internet but the fact that the same applies to teachers is often overlooked.  This article in the Times Education Supplement Scotland on April 8th highlights some of the risks for pupils and staff when using online technologies.

The article quotes Simon Finch, an eLearning officer at Northern Grid and mentions one of the ways we can support schools: a workshop entitled “How to lose your job”.

There is more information about this workshop on the Northern Grid site and on Simon’s blog.

Details of other support we can provide is available in the safeguarding area and in the services guide
