Online Games

We would like to make Parents aware of a number of games which are trending among Key Stage 2 pupils at present.  Fortnite and Roblox are multiplayer games which are played online and can involve children playing with up to 100 strangers in each game.  It is the built in chat features of both games which have hit the news this week with children being exposed to sinister and inappropriate chat and content by adults who are also playing.  Both games are rated as 12+ age appropriate and we have posted a parents’ guide on our school Twitter feed and School Website.  There is also a C2K advice document attached below this article.
