Latest e-Safety news from SWGfL                                              Cymraeg
Welcome to our September issue.
We hope you enjoyed the summer holidays! As always our monthly newsletter is packed full of e-Safety news, advice and information that we hope will continue to support schools in Wales to raise their e-Safety awareness and improve e-Safety policies and practices in order to safeguard young people online and make them smart and responsible users of digital technologies.  
We would welcome comments and feedback too - get in touch at esafety@swgfl.org.uk
