Year 6 mobile phone issue - Snapchat group
FAO Year 6 parents / carers
Dear parent / carer,
It has been brought to my attention that there is a Year 6 Snapchat group on which sexually explicit violent images have been being circulated. I know of at least 4 boys that have been part of this group, but the group may be much wider.
Can I suggest that you log into your child’s phone (which should be at home!) and check. You may also need to review your internet / phone settings to ensure that material of this nature is blocked. I suggest that you also ensure that your child knows what to do should they receive an inappropriate image or request for information. There is a clear safeguarding issue here and trust that you will follow this up as necessary.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this further or would like any advice on keeping your child safe online.
Regards,
Simon Bates
