THE INTERNET OF THINGS OR WHAT I GOT FOR XMAS…
5 THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT THE IOT
WE CANNOT ESCAPE THE FUTURE Our children are growing up in a world that is changing faster than at any time in history.
The technology already present was not around when we were children. It has impacted on social and family life and even affected brain physiology.
The internet of things is already here. Cameras and microphones track you walking on the street, driving, when you shop, using phones and social media, browsing smart TVs and the internet – basically data about you is being collected and shared almost constantly.
We owe it to ourselves to keep up with and understand the technological world in which we are raising our children.
TECHNOLOGY- THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY
USING INTERNET & TECHNOLOGY IS LIKE GOING SWIMMING:
Teaching a child to interact safely online is a lot like taking them swimming. The two processes follow the same stages:
•Choose a safer environment (be it a pool with a lifeguard or a device with filtering)
•Teach them how to keep themselves safe (how to swim or to ‘surf the ‘net’), making sure they know the dangers (hidden currents and drowning or scams and predators)
•Finally – let them go on their own only when you feel they are ready to face the big, bad world out there…
THREE MAIN POINTS
Children can be very tech savvy
Children do not necessarily have experience to judge risk
The digital world can seem as important as the real world
WHAT IS E-SAFETY
‘All users of ICT should be able to do so safely and responsibly without limiting their creativity’
Hiltingbury Junior School guidelines to ensure the privacy and safety of members of our school
community:
Pupils should only be referred to by their first names on our web pages
Any images of pupils should not be labelled with their full names without prior written consent of parent.
Records of permission levels referring to use of pupil images are regularly updated for all staff to access.
Pupils and staff should not reveal their personal details, home addresses & telephone numbers on the web
or in dialogue with other Internet users.
A random selection of pupil E-mail is regularly monitored (weekly).
E-mail is restricted to the school's domain, so children can only email within this.
Pupils must not engage in dialogue or conversation with other Internet users without permission from a
teacher. We record all online conversations within Google Classroom, including use of comment
functions in shared documents.
Search Engines used by the pupils offer a filtered list of links and children are taught how to use these.
Any pupil finding themselves uncomfortable or upset by anything they discover on the Internet should report
it to a teacher immediately. (SLBR - Stop it, Lock it, Block it and report it)
Downloading of files is restricted to staff (or pupils under supervision).
Use of Google Apps in Education, including Mail, Classroom, Sites and Drive is monitored by teachers and
the IT Technician.
G-SUITE FOR EDUCATION
Social media is NOT
necessarily ‘bad’ in
itself. Nor is it
avoidable in the world
in which our children
are growing up.
HJS children get the
opportunity to explore
the concept using a
‘closed’ and monitored
version through Google
Apps
A parent at this years evening also raised the very real potential dangers of physical addiction, specifically in
relation to social networking. We need as adults to model when is an appropriate time and place to use phones,
twitter, whatsapp, facebook, instagram etc.
Children are NOT ALLOWED to use most social networking sites .This is because any data uploaded is
collected by and owned by the network, which under US law it is illegal to collect about children under 13. As a
user of a social network you are not a ‘consumer’ – networks make their money by gathering data about you and
selling it .
CHROMEBOOKS
Like a laptop but uses only Google Apps via the Chrome browser and online applications.
Keep your personal gmail account separate from your childrens school gmail account – our safety settings will override yours.
See our video helpfiles online if you accidentally join your accounts together.
Photos and video in school
● These images are regularly
deleted.
● Photos are not uploaded from
personal devices in school
(because photos taken on personal
phones etc are often geotagged)
● If a child does not have photo
permission, we may have to avoid
taking pictures of the whole
class/group during trips etc.
● At present, in school
concerts/shows, we request
parents to only photo/film their own
child and to respect the rights and
wishes of others.
BE SMART!
S
Safe STOP and THINK Will the information you share keep you safe?
M
Meeting STOP and THINK Are your online friends who they say they are?
A Accepting STOP and THINK How do you know files and pictures are safe?
R Reliable STOP and THINK How do you know that people or pages aren’t lying?
T
Tell STOP and THINK Who can you tell if you feel uncomfortable about something online?
We teach children that not everything they see online is true or reliable…
FILE SHARING
We teach children how to share documents and collaborate, but also to respect copyright.
It is illegal to upload or download copyrighted files including pictures, music and films.
We emphasise the moral implications; just because you CAN do something online, doesn’t mean that you should.
Over-sharing...

CYBERBULLYING
Can be done by anyone to anyone
Occurs via text message, email, through social networking & youtube comment features, online gaming (eg XBox, Club Penguin, Minecraft) blogging…
Can be blocked
Is against the law…
Spotting the signs because children may not tell you - see tips on our school
website under esafety
Possible signs that may point to a cyberbullying or online vulnerability to
radicalisation:
Unexplainable injuries
Lost or destroyed clothing, books, electronics, or jewelry
Frequent headaches or stomach aches, feeling sick or faking illness
Changes in eating habits, like suddenly skipping meals or binge eating. Kids may come home from school
hungry because they did not eat lunch.
Difficulty sleeping or frequent nightmares
Declining grades, loss of interest in schoolwork, or not wanting to go to school
Sudden loss of friends or avoidance of social situations
Feelings of helplessness or decreased self esteem
Self-destructive behaviors such as running away from home, harming themselves, or talking about suicide
Core advice: If you suspect any of these, don’t ignore the problem. Discuss it straight
away with the Child Protection Officer.
GROOMING
•Children do not know who they are talking to
•Images and information once on the internet can be hard to remove
•Children can be pressurised, cajoled and persuaded into doing things they may regret.
•Children may be too embarrassed or frightened to seek help.
Minecraft
• Fantastic, creative, educational game.
• Be aware of the differences between single and multiplayer modes
• Consider paying for a realm.
• See parental controls support at http://www.minemum.com/
ADDICTION? How often does your child;
Check their texts/emails?
Check instagram / social networks?
Play games?
Use your password?
Use technology after bedtime?
Switch off technology and play outside?
This is a very real problem and is a real physical addiction – google your router or broadband providers
website to set up parental controls, which can even be set up separately for each device. Use timer settings so
children cannot access at night. Prevent rather than cure!
What we do to keep children safe in school
Digital Leaders are now ‘esafety officers’ or ‘tech team’ and taking part in
CEOP / Childnet training.
Digital Leaders run the SLBR campaign and are vocal about esafety
ALL Hiltingbury staff take part in regular training on esafety
Safer Internet Day assemblies & Year 5 / 6 assembly visit from NSPCC
Each year group has eSafety tasks to complete in Google classrooms
School Internet policies are regularly reviewed and regularly
Parents permission letters for Google Apps and internet use is high profile as is
the photo/image consent form
All email / Hiltingbury Google content is visible to, monitored and recorded by
school
We listen to your suggestions as parents and experts too!
WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP KEEP MY CHILD SAFE?
• Talk to your child about how they use technology.
• Do not be intimidated by technology you may not fully understand
• Install and switch on parental controls (Do a search online for your router or your broadband provider for the latest info on how to do this for your particular devices. It is much easier than it used to be!)
• Supervise use until you are happy they are responsible
• Follow the SMART code and refer to SLBR
• See year group websites and/or Hiltingbury Junior school websites for more links and support.
