safety guidelines
our approach
At Learning That Fits, we design resources that support safe, flexible, and independent learning.
- Some activities may involve:
- accessing websites
- watching videos
- researching information online
- We encourage safe and supported use of digital tools.
Parent and Carer Role
Our resources are designed to be flexible, but adult guidance is recommended, especially for younger learners.
- Parents and carers can support online safety by:
- checking links before use
- supervising online activity where needed
- helping learners choose appropriate sources
- discussing safe and respectful online behaviour
Using Online Links
We aim to include relevant and appropriate links, but we do not control external websites.
- When using links:
- preview content before sharing with your learner
- be aware that websites may change over time
- exit any site that feels inappropriate or unsafe
Privacy and Personal Information
Learners should avoid sharing personal information online, including:
- full name
- address
- school or location details
- passwords or login details
- Encourage learners to:
- keep personal information private
- ask before entering details on any website
Creating and Sharing Work
Some activities may involve creating digital work.
- We recommend:
- saving work in private spaces
- avoiding public sharing unless supervised
- emoving identifying details from work that is shared
safe searching
- Support learners to:
- use age-appropriate search tools where possible
- use specific search terms
- check information across more than one source
- Encourage questions like:
- is this information reliable?
- who created this content?
Digital Wellbeing
Learning online should feel balanced and manageable.
- Encourage learners to:
- take breaks
- move between online and offline activities
- stop if they feel overwhelmed
If Something Doesn’t Feel Right
- Encourage learners to speak to a trusted adult if they:
- see something upsetting or confusing
- are asked for personal information
- feel unsure about a website or interaction
- Parents and carers can:
- close the site
- discuss what happened
- report content if needed
Our Responsibility
- We:
- aim to provide safe and appropriate content
- review resources regularly
- update links where possible
- However, we cannot guarantee the ongoing safety or accuracy of external websites.
