SEND INFORMATION REPORT How we support pupils with additional needs at South Hill Primary School (Reviewed by the School Governors on 16.3.23, Staff Meeting to review and update 14.9.23, SLT update 16.01.23, reviewed) SENCO update 30.1.24 *Please note there is a Glossary of Terms at the end of the document ​ Introduction: All Hertfordshire Local Authority (LA) maintained schools have a similar approach to meeting the needs of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) and are supported by the LA to ensure that all pupils, regardless of their special needs, make the best possible progress in school. At South Hill Primary School we are working to create a whole school community where everyone feels valued, accepted and able to contribute. This is based in an atmosphere of mutual respect and understanding, supported by our positive behaviour policy, which advocates a therapeutic approach to supporting behaviours and equality policies. We believe children learn best when they feel happy, secure and confident. At South Hill we place a strong emphasis on the right of all children to a broad and balanced curriculum, which meets their individual needs, interests and abilities. Consequently, we aim to cater for every pupil within the general fabric of the whole school. We ensure equal opportunities in terms of access to the curriculum and carefully monitor resources, opportunities and stimuli. Hertfordshire supports all schools to be as inclusive as possible, with the needs of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) being met in a mainstream setting wherever possible. At South Hill we support children with a wide range of need which fall in the four broad areas of SEND need. These are: ❖ Communication and Interaction ❖ Cognition and Learning ❖ Social, Emotional and Mental Health Difficulties ❖ Sensory and Physical Needs ​ What is the SEND Information Report? The Children’s and Families Bill requires local authorities and schools to publish and keep under review information about services they expect to be available for the children and young people with SEND aged 0-25. Hertfordshire publish a Local Offer. Schools publish a SEND Information report about the services and provision in their school. It is linked to Hertfordshire’s Local Offer via web links. The intention of the Local Offer is to improve choice and transparency for families. It is also an important resource for parents and carers in understanding the range of services and provision in the local area. To gain further information on Hertfordshire’s local offer of services and provision for children and young people with SEND click on the link below: https://www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/microsites/Local-Offer/The-Hertfordshire-Local-Offer.aspx In addition, there is a lot of information to support parents of children with SEND on our school website: https://www.southhill.herts.sch.uk/send Contents ​ South Hill Primary School’s Information Report is written in a question and answer style.

Glossary of Terms Questions 1a) How does the school know if my child needs extra help? ​ Concerns are raised by parents/carers, teachers or the child: Meetings, telephone calls, emails that share concerns from parents/carers or teachers Teachers may have discussions between parents/carers and the SENCO Limited progress is being made Formative and Summative Assessments made by the teachers Termly Pupil Progress Meetings with the leadership team Despite good quality teaching There is a change or concern about a child’s behaviour (e.g frequent toilet breaks, very distracting to others, overly emotional, disengaged, high level of emotional support required) A child is dependent on adult support to access the learning A child finds it difficult to make themselves understood, or finds answering questions tricky Use of checklists and assessments to identify areas of learning or emotional wellbeing that are in need of support Liaison with external agencies e.g. Speech, Language, Communication and Autism Team, Early Years Team Health diagnosis through a paediatrician, which has an impact on the child's life in school Poor school attendance due to anxiety Liaison with previous school or setting, if applicable return to the information report questions 1a 1b) What is the definition of SEND?: 1b 1c 1c) What should I do if I think my child may have special educational needs? ​ Parents/Carers who are concerned that their child may have SEND issues should talk to their child’s class teacher. ​ After talking to the Class Teacher, it may be appropriate to make an appointment to see the SENCO. Often, the initial response will be to consider how the child’s needs can be met through changes in approach or strategy, adaptation, (making the curriculum more accessible for the child) or through the implementation of a classroom intervention. The SENCO may, if appropriate, refer to outside agencies for support e.g. school nurse, family support worker, optician, audiologist. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ return to the information report questions •First talk to Class Teacher about concerns and consider how to support any needs together •If concerns continue, make an appointment to see Mrs Donley, SENCO, via the office and consider how to further support any needs •If concerns continue, your child may have SEND and can continue to be supported through the school Passport to Success Meetings 1d 1d) How does the school identify children with SEND? ​ ​ Typical Assessments Used at South Hill Primary School: ​ Early Identification of Need: Reception Baseline Assessments ​ Social, Emotional, Mental, Health: Conners SNAP IV questionnaires, ABC sheets, Therapeutic Thinking Tree Mapping, Anxiety Tracking Sheets, Speech and Language profiles for social communication difficulties, Play Therapy Reports, Neurodiversity checklist, observations, pupil emotional checklists, Salford Emotional Questionnaire ​ Autism: As above plus: Neurodiveristy Checklists, Sensory profiles, Speech and Language Assessments, AET resources, observations ​ Speech Language and Communication Needs: WellComm Screening Tool and Big Book of ideas, Speech and Language screening tools and assessments, Articulation Screeners ​ Physical Disability: Observations, Neurodiversity checklists ​ Specific Learning Difficulty: Phonic checks in year 1 and 2, Hertfordshire SPLD Baseline Packs for Literacy and Maths, Read, Write Inc Assessments, Running Reading Records, Handwriting assessments, neurodiversity checklists, memory tests and checklists, slow processing checklists, Year 1 phonics screening, Executive Functioning Checklist ​ Visually Impaired/Hearing Impaired: Hearing and Sight tests, observations ​ Moderate/Mild Learning Difficulty: In school progress assessments and tests, memory tests and checklists, slow processing checklists ​ ​ return to the information report questions 1e) How is my child’s progress tracked? ​ ​ return to the information report questions Teachers and the Senior Leadership Team meet at least three times a year at Pupil Progress Meetings to discuss progress, attainment and any barriers to learning. Class teachers and subject leaders monitor pupil progress through formative and summative assessments 3 x a year this is recorded in a database and analysed 1e 2. How will school staff support my child? ​ If a child has been identified as making less than expected progress the first response is high quality teaching targeted at their areas of weakness (Universal support). If over a sustained period of time progress does not improve a variety of measures may be taken including; a) Adaptated and Differentiated work based on needs (universal support) b) Reasonable Adjustments – such as timetable changes, additional equipment, brain or sensory breaks. These are recorded in the first section of the school's Passport to Success which includes a 1 Page Profile at a glance sheet, with strategies and interests of children identified c) Intervention group with TA (targeted support) – this may be class based or separate from the main class, this may include pre-teaching or overlearning support d) Assessments: the school may use screening tools for dyslexia, dyscalculia, ASD/ADHD inlcuidng SpLD Maths/Literacy Packs or Read, Write Inc Phonic Assessments to uncover barriers to learning or gaps in learning e) ‘Passport to Success’ co-produced and reviewed three times a year f) SMART Targets – through use of an Individual Education Plan (2nd section of the School’s Passport to Success) g) Therapeutic Risk Reduction Plan to support social, emotional, mental health and behavioural concerns h) Medical Healthcare Plan and / or Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan to support medical conditions or Disability i) Small Steps of Progress: A few children may not be able to access the national curriculum or be making very slow progress. They will be assessed using PIVATS 5 or The Engagement Profile (if below PIVATS 5 level 5). In Reception class, we also use the IAELD (Individual Assessment of Early Learning and Development) j) Referral to specialist support if necessary. E.g. Educational Psychologists; Speech and Language therapists; Speech, Language, Communication and Autism advisory teachers; Dacorum Education Support Centre, outreach teachers; family support. N.B. In Hertfordshire it is generally required that two cycles of the ‘Assess, Plan, Do Review’ Graduated approach have been implemented before a referral is made to external professionals (at South Hill this means the Passport to Success with Smart Targets will need to have been reviewed at least twice before seeking external support). k)In very exceptional circumstances, the school may apply for Local High Needs Funding (LHNF) to enable an additional adult to support in class or with the child ​ For a few children, it may be necessary for the parents/carers and school to make a request to Hertfordshire SEND Department for an Education Health Care Plan assessment. These plans are designed for those children who have very exceptional, complex and demanding needs which require close monitoring to ensure that a child’s needs are met. The School SENCO will support Class Teachers in assessing needs, planning and implementing interventions and reviewing progress. The school SENCO will, as required, support class teachers to make referrals to gain specialist advice for children in their class. This may lead to consultations with the advisory service, class teacher, parent/carer and SENCO. ​ 3) How will I know how my child is doing? ​ High expectations of each child in their class coupled with making the learning accessible through adaptation of tasks and skilled differentiation usually ensures that children are making at least expected progress and frequently higher than expected progress. However, some children require additional support in spite of this. When a child is placed on a targeted intervention, progress is monitored by both the class teacher and SENCO through pupil progress meetings which occur three times a year. Parents are informed through: ​ Parents' evenings School Reports Informal chats with your child’s class teacher after school – it would be helpful, but not essential, to book an appointment Home school communication books (for particular children) Formal meetings with your child’s class teacher and the school SENCO, Headteacher or other professionals ​ The effectiveness of the school’s provision for children with SEND is evaluated by the Senior Leadership Team, reported to governors and monitored by OFSTED ​ 4a) How will the learning and development provision be matched to my child’s SEND? ​ When a pupil has been identified with special needs adjustments will be made to ensure learning is accessible through adaptation and differentiation to enable them to actively participate in their lessons Reasonable adjustments may be required, tailored to a child’s individual needs, such as: additional equipment, adaptations to equipment, flexible starting/pick up times, sensory/ movement breaks, small step sequential work The graduated approach means that the pupil will be assessed, a plan created, implemented and reviewed at least 3 x a year. If the child’s difficulties persist despite several cycles of assessment and intervention, then further specialist support may be requested from external agencies Specific recognised interventions may be implemented e.g. Learning Village (phonics and vocabulary), Lexia (reading) or IXL (maths) Teaching Assistants (TAs) may be allocated to work with the pupil in a 1-1 or small focus group to target more specific needs ​ return to the information report questions 2 3 4 4b) What is the graduated approach? ​ Class Teachers will ensure that all learning, through quality first teaching, is engaging, motivating, made accessible and differentiated as required, this is known as 'Universal' support. Children whose progress is slower over time, than that of their peers, starting from the same baseline, will be identified and interventions will be made within the class to accelerate progress – this is recorded as ‘Targeted’ support and is recorded on the class provision map. Concerns will be shared with parents and carers and we will work in partnership to aid accelerated progression to enable the child to ‘catch up’. Other barriers to progress and attainment, such as English as an Additional Language (EAL), housing, family or domestic circumstances will also be considered and supported as required. If a child continues to make slower than expected progress or there continue to be concerns in other areas such as social and emotional wellbeing, the SENCO, working with the class teacher and the parents or carers will gather additional information by talking to others who know the child and make assessments to identify any underlying causes. ​ If barriers to learning are identified, the child may then be considered as having a special educational need or disability (SEND). The child will be placed onto the school’s SEND register and a Passport to Success will be co-produced with the parents/ carers, the child, the class teacher and SENCO. ​ Through this process, appropriate intervention and adjustments to minimise the impact of barriers will be considered, often this will be a number of specific strategies that are implemented within the classroom. If it is necessary to support progress in learning or emotional regulation, with a small step approach, highly specific and very specialised support may be put in place, this is known as ‘Specialist’ intervention, and it will recorded using SMART targets in an Individual Education Plan (IEP), which at South Hill is the 2nd section of the Passport to Success. This level of support will also be noted on the class provision map. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ The process of assessing a child’s barriers to learning, planning appropriate provision, implementing the plans and reviewing the impact of the plans is known as an ‘assess, plan, do, review cycle’ otherwise recognised as the ‘Graduated Approach’. The assess, plan, do, review cycle is an ongoing process. The review will take place at least 3 x a year at a dedicated SEND Passport to Success meeting. At these meetings the class teacher, parents/carers, the child (when appropriate) meet to discuss progress made, consider on-going concerns and plan the next steps of support. Together they co-produce and review the ‘Passport to Success’ and if necessary the IEP. ​ The SENCO will support the teacher of the meeting ahead (if required) and will attend if parents/carers and / or the class teacher request this support. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ return to the information report questions 4b 5 5) What support will there be for my child’s overall wellbeing?

Modern Foreign Language - French “Languages are an essential part of a broad, balanced curriculum. Not only do they provide an opportunity to communicate more effectively with others, they also help children to understand what it is to be a global citizen. This includes the importance of tolerance and understanding, which is crucial knowledge in today’s world.” ​ ​At South Hill, French is taught as a Modern Foreign Language (MFL) in Key stage two. Pupils in Early Years and Key Stage One learn and develop skills, which will support and benefit their future language learning. These include: Communication and language Phonics Reading Grammar Vocabulary Knowledge of different cultures and societies​ Our Curriculum In KS2, French is taught using the ‘Language Angels’ scheme of work. Teaching units have been selected in order to build a wide range of vocabulary and enable progression in our ‘Golden Threads’, which are: LISTENING SPEAKING READING WRITING In the Autumn term, each year group starts with phonetics and pronunciation lessons which teach some of the key sounds in French. Pupils also spend time learning and using some ‘essential vocabulary’ including greetings, numbers and days of the week etc. Pupils then continue developing their speaking, listening, reading and writing skills through a variety of topics throughout the year. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ To ensure learning is enjoyable and memorable, lessons often use stories, songs, role play and a variety of other activities to support pupils to learn, remember and apply French vocabulary. ​ Celebrating languages Within our school, we have pupils that speak many different languages. We aim to celebrate this through whole school events such as ‘International Day’ and ‘International Languages Day’ where each year group selects a country to learn about and to take part in a dance as well as many other activities. We also celebrate languages that are in school by dressing in colours of a chosen nationality and sharing languages, customs and traditions with our friends. ​ ​ ​ ​ 1/5 Long Term Plan Subject Overview Essential Vocab

Safeguarding in the Curriculum at South Hill School Safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do here at South Hill School. Great importance is placed on identifying opportunities in the taught curriculum for children to learn about safeguarding. Our broad curriculum gives pupils opportunities to experience life in all its diversity, to acquire knowledge, understanding, and skills that significantly impact personal development, behaviour, and welfare. It also equips our pupils with the knowledge and skills required for personal safeguarding. Our PSHE curriculum covers aspects of safeguarding which are appropriate to the child’s age. We are sensitive in our teaching and recognise that some more sensitive subjects need to be taught at an age-appropriate level, or at a small group or 1:1 level where a more urgent need arises. We plan to constantly challenge children to think deeply about their own personal physical and mental wellbeing. We value pupils’ questions and give them space for their own thoughts, ideas, and concerns. We give pupils’ opportunities across the curriculum to explore values, personal rights, responsibilities, and equal opportunities that develop moral concepts that impact positively on safeguarding, promote British values and prevent radicalisation and extremism. Safeguarding through the curriculum is more heavily planned within the following subjects: PSHE (No Outsiders, Picture News, The Christopher Winter Project (RSE and Drugs) Religious Education Science Computing/Online Safety lessons through Project Evolve EYFS - Personal, Social and Emotional Development Zones of Regulation Further safeguarding opportunities are continually planned into the curriculum. For example: Road safety Nurture Class Nurture Club Bikeability in Year 5 Poolside and water safety through swimming lessons in year 4 and 6 Fire awareness in Year 2 (including visits from the local fire service) Assemblies and workshops provided by NSPCC Y6 Transitions Plays and shows (building confidence) Be Smart online safety poster Online safety (targeted work as required) NSPCC PANTS work (targeted work as required) Protective Behaviours (targeted work as required) Anti-bullying week Wellbeing week Wellbeing festival Just Talk Week/Worry box assembly Religious festival assemblies Online Safety Day Black History week International Day We have developed an open and safe learning environment in which pupils express their views, seek help, and help others. The promotion of equality of opportunity and diversity, for pupils and staff, helps prevent any form of direct or indirect discriminatory behaviour. Our children learn to not tolerate any prejudiced behaviour. Our behaviour policy promotes making good choices and exhibiting good learning behaviours. Class times are a time for sharing ideas, addressing concerns, and promoting important values. Assembly time is used to promote safeguarding matters and explore themes. For example, we talk about anti-bullying, including cyber bullying and British values, including how these values are promoted in our multi–faith society. Staff and children are quick to challenge stereotypes and the use of derogatory language. Our school teaches the diversity of experiences and provides pupils with a comprehensive understanding of people and communities beyond their immediate experience through the use of the ‘no outsiders’ project. Throughout the curriculum, there are planned opportunities to promote all forms of equality and foster greater understanding of and respect for people of all faiths (and those with no faith), races, genders, ages, disabilities, and sexual orientations. Time is taken at the beginning of every new school year and through regular assemblies to reaffirm school values, expectations, and the ‘South Hill Way’.

Young Voices Young Voices offers children the amazing opportunity of singing with the worlds’ largest children’s choir. The whole experience is a journey and discovery, culminating in the most extraordinary performance opportunity there could possibly be. South Hill Choir have attended Young Voices in 2017,2019,2022,2023 and most recently 16th January 2024. This year the music included a Matilda Medley, a gospel medley, A Moana[Disney] medley as well as anthems and pop songs from a huge variety of genres. These offer the children opportunities to learn about other times and cultures, as well as musical styles. We even sang a beautiful Korean song called Arirang. The choir members worked extremely hard to learn all the lyrics and attended many extra rehearsals. All the hard work paid off with such an exceptional day on Tuesday 16th January. The day was long and exhausting but the children were utterly amazing. Their enthusiasm and energy bubbled over all day. Most of the songs had actions and dance moves so we were kept moving in the rehearsal as well as being introduced to the various artists who would be performing with us in the evening. As the lights went down for the concert to begin at 7pm the atmosphere was electric. Parents had arrived in the O2 and we could wave to them from a distance! The Urban Striders, Nandi Bushell, Natalie Williams and MCGrammar were sensational. The children found Nandi so inspiring as she is only 13 years old and a fantastic drummer-she blew us away with her talent! The pupils have been inspired to follow MCGrammar and especially enjoy watching him perform his World Book Day rap on Youtube! ​ Such an incredible evening to inspire and remember! Here are some of the choir members’ comments: ‘It was just the best time’ ‘I loved the Urban Strides Dancers- they all waved to us!’ My favourite song was ‘Rockstar’ ‘I loved the violinist performing with the Beatboxers’ ‘I loved the lights- I felt like a star!’

Early Years Foundation Stage Early Years Vision ​ Children in Early Years are valued as unique individuals. The stimulating environment is enhanced to reflect their interests. Our Early Years provision develops the building blocks in learning in preparation for Year 1. The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is how the Government and Early Years professionals describe the educational stage in your child’s life between birth and the age of five. Reception is the final year of this stage. This is a very important stage as it helps your child get ready for the next stage of school as well as preparing them for future learning and successes. ​ There are four guiding principles which shape practice in the Early Years at South Hill. These are: • Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured • Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships • Children learn and develop well in enabling environments with teaching and support from adults, who respond to their individual interests and needs and help them to build their learning over time. Children benefit from a strong partnership between practitioners and parents and/or carers. • Children develop and learn at different rates. The framework covers the education and care of all children in early years provision, including children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). ​ The three prime areas are most essential for building your child’s capacity for learning and ensuring that they are able to thrive. These are: Communication and language Physical development Personal, social and emotional development Succeeding within the prime areas will help children to develop skills in four specific areas. These are: Literacy Mathematics Understanding the world Expressive arts and design Communication and Language: involves giving children opportunities to experience a rich language environment; to develop their confidence and skills in expressing themselves; and to speak and listen in a range of situations. Physical Development: involves providing opportunities for children to be active and interactive and develop their co-ordination, control and movement. Children are supported to understand the importance of being active and making healthy choices in relation to food. Personal, Social and Emotional Development: involves helping children to develop a positive sense of themselves and others; to form positive relationships and develop respect for others. Children learn social skills and how to manage their feelings; to understand appropriate behaviour in groups and to have confidence in their own abilities. Literacy: involves encouraging children to link sound and letters and to begin to learn to read and write. Children are given opportunities to explore a wide range of reading materials to ignite their interests. Mathematics: involves providing children opportunities to develop and improve their skills in counting, understanding and using numbers, calculating simple addition and subtraction problems and using mathematical language involving shape, space and measures. Understanding the World: involves supporting children to make sense of the world in which they live and their community through opportunities to explore, observe and find out about people, places, technology and the environment. Expressive Arts and Design: involves enabling children to explore and play with a wide range of media and materials, as well as providing opportunities and encouragement for sharing their thoughts, ideas and feelings through a variety of activities in art, music, movement, dance, role play and design and technology. EYFS Overview EYFS Curriculum Ambitions Long Term Plan ​ At South Hill, children in the EYFS learn by playing and exploring, being active, and through creative and critical thinking, which takes place both indoors and in our outdoor environment. Your child will be learning skills, acquiring new knowledge and demonstrating their understanding through the seven areas of learning. The areas of learning are all important and are interconnected. ​ Pupil Voice Aria, age 4, Robins 'My favourite bit is learning maths cos I love counting'. Izzy, age 4, Robins 'I like doing independent learning cos it's so fun. Especially I like the calm corner'. Brad age 4 Robins 'I like playing with the cars in my class'. Harry age 5 Robins 'My favourite part of school is playing with Sonny. We play with lego and draw pictures and we especially love using the story shelves to make up our own stories'. Baani age 5 Robins ' since I started school I learnt to do a 'w' and read tricky books'.

International Day Each year at South Hill School, we celebrate 'International Day'. Each class chooses a country from around the world which is also representative of our South Hill communities. For that day, year groups represent and learn more about their chosen country and can wear traditional clothing from their celebrated country or colours of the flag. ​ Pupils learn about the geography of their chosen country and where to locate the country on a map, what continent the country is part of and what countries are nearby, we might learn about famous buildings and landmarks. For PE, we are lucky to have Don Rae Academy join us to teach traditional dances from each country. For MFL (Modern Foreign Language), some year groups learn a few key phrases and words. Some children even learn a song! Some year groups have a food tasting activity so children can get a sense of the traditional food and culture from their country of the day while other year groups make the traditional food themselves. ​ Throughout the day, some year groups listen to music of their country and think about whether it is similar or different to the music we might listen to at home. ​ Some year groups look at the religion and the history of their chosen country, focusing on some significant people from that country and how the country has possibly changed over time. ​ Countries from 2023 were: Reception- Bangladesh Year 1- Poland Year 2- India Year 3- Romania Year 4- Italy Year 5- Turkey Year 6- Brazil

Çevrimiçi güvenlik South Hill Primary school recognises that internet, mobile and digital technologies provide positive opportunities for children and young people to learn, socialise and play but they also need to understand the challenges and risks. The digital world is an amazing place, but with few rules. It is vast and fast moving and young people’s future economic success may be partly dependent on their online skills and reputation. We are, therefore, committed to ensuring that pupils, staff and governors will be supported to use internet, mobile and digital technologies safely. This is part of our safeguarding responsibility. Staff are aware that some pupils may require additional support or teaching, including reminders, prompts and further explanation to reinforce their knowledge and understanding of online safety issues. We are also committed to ensuring that all those who work with children and young people, including their parents/carers, are informed about the ever-changing risks so that they can take an active part in helping children and young people navigate the online world safely and confidently. Staff have an annual online safety review, with parents and carers receiving monthly online safety tips in the school newsletter. We currently use the document ‘Education for a Connected World’ and resources from Project Evolve to plan and implement our half termly online safety sessions across the school (EYFS to Year 6). Each term, delivers a different aspect of online safety with bespoke sessions adopted when required, see the long term plan for details of our curriculum. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ We are also lucky to have a team of Digital Leaders at South Hill, whose role it to promote online safety and share their love of all things digital! All digital leaders have to apply for their role and are shortlisted and interviewed by the previous year’s Digital Leader team. ​ Digital leader’s responsibilities include: · Learning how to use key software, so that they can be a help to others. · Have a good understanding on how to stay safe with technology and share with others. · Trialling potential new software and websites, then demonstrating them to other children and teachers. · Writing blog posts and commenting on other blogs · Set up equipment in classrooms for teachers. · Helping to lead the school forwards within the subject of Computing. ​ ​ Long Term Plan Çevrimiçi Güvende Kalın Smart Rules Spring 2024 Newsletter (HfL) Kaynaklar ve Güvenlik Kılavuzları YouTube Inappropriate Content Tik Tok Alexa İkna Edici Tasarım Oyun Bozukluğu Aramızda Xbox Çevrimiçi nazik olun Çevrimiçi nazik olmanın 14 yolu PlayStation5 Upsetting Content Childnet International, interneti çocuklar için harika ve güvenli bir yer haline getirmeye yardımcı olmak için başkalarıyla birlikte çalışan, kar amacı gütmeyen bir kuruluştur.
