With Ofcom reporting that over 7 million UK children use WhatsApp, it’s absolutely paramount for us to understand what risks the platform might pose to young people 📱☢️ This week’s guide 📜 and the latest episode of our podcast 🎙️ dive into the safety concerns of this popular messaging app and offer expert advice on safeguarding younger users. Download here >> https://ow.ly/zg7G50V2yoN Listen here >> https://ow.ly/iMSO50V2yoK

Findings from Ofcom last year indicate that as many as 16% of the UK’s population are currently using dating apps to form new connections 📱🔗 That’s more than 11 million users in this country alone, and among so many, there are bound to be some who don’t hop on these platforms with the best of intentions 👤 This is especially important to remember when we consider that an Ofcom consultation in the lead-up to the Online Safety Act found that some children and young people use these apps – regardless of their age restrictions 🔞 It’s vital that parents and educators remain aware of the risks associated with dating apps and learn how best to keep youngsters safe from them 🛡️ That’s why we’ve put together this week’s expert-led guide, detailing the most prominent risks of these platforms.

Redbridge Council need more foster carers who can make happy, lasting memories for a child or young person. We often take some things for granted. Taking our children to the park or to a playground; jumping in puddles; getting your wellies stuck in thick mud. Many children in Redbridge, however, have never experienced these fun and free activities. A care leaver remembers the time that she was fostered and had a picnic in a park, “I had never had a picnic in a park before. I was 11. It was so exciting.” If you would like to create happy memories for our most vulnerable children and are considering fostering for Redbridge Council, please call us on 020 8708 6068 or visit our website https://www.redbridge.gov.uk/fosteringschools to book onto one of our virtual information sessions.

Children's Mental Health Week 2025 at Caterham High School This year's theme is 'Know yourself, grow yourself'. During Children's Mental Health week 2025, we are raising awareness and breaking the stigma of mental health in our school and greater community. A busy time filled with opportunities to stop and learn something new whether that be during lunchtimes where we've hosted an information table in all our canteens this week or during assemblies over the coming days. Some ideas are to plan to do something that brings you joy, a walk along Colombia Road market to smell the flowers or meeting friends to play 5-aside, read a book or treat yourself to a comforting hot chocolate. Whatever activity that you enjoy, plan it today! To support our pupils and our school community to learn more about 'Wellbeing' Mrs. Bonnici is hosting 'Wellbeing' sessions every Wednesday after school throughout February. 3.15pm - 4pm in the Zen Den, please come along and learn about 'Grounding, Mindfulness & Breathing' techniques to help us manage busy and sometimes chaotic days.

However, while some fake news is shared mistakenly by well-meaning individuals, it’s also shared by scammers and other cyber-criminals to lend legitimacy to their con. While this presents a clear risk to children and young people online, the question remains as to how we can protect them against such tactics 🛡️ This week’s free guide offers expert advice on the specific ways scammers use misinformation and how to safeguard younger users against these techniques.
