Dear Parents and Guardians,
I am sure many of you are aware of the popular Netflix series Squid Game. A number of our younger Secondary students have been talking about this series in more detail than we would normally expect, especially as Squid Game carries an age restriction of 16+.
We feel that this is an appropriate time to remind our parent community of the wonderful resource, Common Sense Media. This website provides parents with detailed reviews of popular movies, television shows and video games. Within these reviews, the website details everything parents need to know to help them make informed decisions about if the movie or game is appropriate for their child. Here is a direct LINK to what Common Sense Media have to say about Squid Game.
At DBIS, we understand that all families have different values and restrictions at home, but in line with our digital safeguarding policy, we will always do our best to keep families informed of media choices that our students are making both in and outside of school, so necessary discussions can take place to protect our students from any potential harm.
Kind regards
Angela Moriarty
