Online Safety
In an ever changing world one thing that has emerged particularly since COVID19 is the role that technology and the internet has played in everyone's lives. The internet is a fantastic thing if used wisely; at GCMS we strive to prepare our pupils to be mindful with regards to protecting themselves and using the internet wisely, becoming responsible digital citizens in the process.
