⭐ Transitioning from Prep to Senior School ⭐ As we approach the new academic year in September, some children and families may be feeling anxious about the transition from Prep to Senior School. This change can bring new travel arrangements, expectations, routines, and for some, a move into boarding. Take a look back at our blog post for tips on how parents can support this transition: https://hubs.li/Q02FNx8G0 Leweston School #Leweston #PreptoSenior #SchoolBlog

It was fantastic to join the team at #weekendsunrise today to share some practical tips for parents when it comes to managing their children's access to #socialmedia It can be really tempting as parents to look to a specific age when "allowing" our kids permission to access social media, or when to hand over their first phone. However, the time has come where parents need to pay more attention to capabilities, confidence, and the realistic abilities their children have to respond to the complex situations the online world presents, rather than simply ticking boxes or focusing on a number. I spoke about a fantastic solution in our tool Qustodio to support parents in creating a home environment where parents are able to maintain visibility and control of their child's digital world, yet allows young people the opportunity to explore in a way that is appropriate for their age and stage. When we use tools like this as parents, we shift focus to safe capacity building rather than pointless bans or unrealistic approaches, and create a strengths based and empowered environment which supports their growth as responsible digital citizens. #onlinesafety #digitalparents #australianschools #schools #digitalresilience #esafety Qoria ySafe by Qoria Linewize US Linewize ANZ Tim Levy Taryn Wren Independent Schools Australia Sydney Catholic Schools https://lnkd.in/guxC46Xf
