Fronter Letter (Years 1-6)

Dear Parents/Carers

Dame Tipping Primary School is introducing a Virtual Learning Environment to all our pupils which is called Fronter.  This website is a safe and secure area on the Internet where your child(ren) will have tools to support their learning in their own ‘Virtual Classroom’. It provides a unique ‘bridge’ between school and home. It is a secure website which can only be accessed by the use of a password and will only be seen by other children in the school and their families. 

To access Fronter:

1. Type www.dametipping.havering.sch.uk into the address bar
2. Enter their username and password (on the ID Card attached). The username and password can also be used to access other websites linked to Fronter.

Please keep the ID Card safe as you will need it to

access school work set during school closures e.g. on snow days.

One area we would like you to work with us on is in teaching the importance of safe and responsible use of the internet. We feel this is a key part of introducing Fronter. We would expect our younger learners to only be using the internet with a responsible adult.  As they move through the school, they will begin to use it more independently but always with an adult aware of what they are doing. Websites about e-safety you may be interested to look at with your child(ren) are:

www.thinkuknow.co.uk                  www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/help/safesurfing

Please find attached a useful poster which displays the activities available on Fronter. We look forward to sharing this new learning experience with you. 

Yours sincerely,

Mr R Evans
