Parent Guides for safety and monitoring

How was this module for you?

Being a parent with children who are using devices can be challenging and scary at times, but you can find some helpful modules here. Be Connected and Microsoft have created a number of helpful courses for you to upskill yourself on some online basics. Don’t forget that Microsoft Edge offers a ‘kids mode’ browsing platform, which is designed for kids to safely explore the web with filters in place.
