Please click this link for more information on Durham’s official Parent Carer Forum and a group of parent carers volunteers who work with professionals to influence and improve services to children and young people (0-25 years) with special educational needs and disabilities within the Durham local authority area.
Here at Belmont Community School we are delighted to be one of the very first schools trialling new resources aimed at supporting our pupils with online safety. The National Crime Agency resources “Send Me A Pic” deal with the thorny issue of young people and requests for nude images. They will clearly educate students on the law and the serious consequences of these requests. Our Year 8 and 9 Personal Development classes will experience this series of lessons in March and our feedback will help the NCA shape the resources before launching them nationally. If you would like further support in keeping your child safe online please use this link.
Calling all parents and carers who would like to start the new year by building on their positive relationships with family members and in particular teenagers. Please sign up to the online course opportunity below:
