Safeguarding Information For Parents
During School Hours:
If you have a concern about a child you can contact the school office during the school day and ask to speak to our Designated Safeguarding lead. The Designated Safeguarding Lead is Miss J Green.
If you prefer you can send an email to: julie.green@utcmediacityuk.org.uk
Please refer in any concerns you have, no matter how small you think they are.
Virgin Media O2
When it comes to educating your kids about the internet, you might feel out of your depth, when they’re learning, playing and chatting to friends on websites and apps you’re unfamiliar with.
At Virgin Media O2, we want internet users of all ages to enjoy all the wonderful things the web has to offer, safely. That’s why our experts have created a children’s internet safety test to help build awareness for parents and children of all ages to ensure they are better protected online.
