Parent Controls for Game Consoles & Other Devices
(Google HOME, Nintendo etc.)
Most games consoles are internet enabled. Which means your child can go online and chat with other players or make in-game purchases.
Like with mobiles and tablets, the controls on your games console help you to manage what your child can and can’t do
Some devices allow you to:
- Set up different profiles for each family member
- Deactivate the internet
- Turn off chat functions to stop your child from talking to strangers
f you’re not sure where to start or need some advice, you can speak to one of the experts from the O2 & NSPCC helpline. Call on 0808 800 5002.
Or read the advice on gaming devices from UK Safer Internet Centre.
** If there are any parental controls for another device you would like that are not listed here, please contact school, and we will try and source them for you.
