Online Safety
Online Safety is a key priority for all at Quwwat ul Islam Girls’ School. We have a range of measures in place to ensure that children are protected from any potential danger or unsuitable material. Lessons are taught from EYFS which explain and demonstrate how to stay safe when using the internet and working with technology. During their time at QUIGS, children are taught to Be Smart when working online.
