As part of safeguarding procedures, The Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015 expects schools  to prevent children and young people from being drawn into terrorism or extremism.

It important that these risks and dangers are considered for every child, right across the country. This includes those places that have not traditionally seen themselves as being at risk, such as in a primary school like ours.

At Holbrook CE Primary School, we ensure that children are safe from online terrorist and extremist material in school, via appropriate levels of filtering. The suitability of visiting speakers is checked and we train all our staff to be able to identify the risk of being drawn into terrorism, as well as to challenge extremist ideas.

Everyone has a responsibility to take action to report any concerning content online including our parents, staff, governors and children.

Report terrorism-related content to the police’s Counter Terrorism Internet Referral Unit (CTIRU) here @ gov.uk
