DfE Update from The Home Office April 2020

This article has been brought to you by Slough Borough Council's Prevent Education Officer, Rabena Sharif, for the attention of School to Disseminate to Parents, Carers and Partners.

The Home Office published guidance for parents and carers to keep children safe online. This covers a range of online harms including radicalisation. Please share with partners including education providers, community groups, project providers, or supplementary schools and any other avenues you feel could be used to best reach parents.

The advice and guidance on GOV.UK is being regularly updated; this page is likely to become the location for any future guidance on online harms.
