Online Safety Top Tip – TikTok

TikTok is a social networking app that replaced the popular Musical.ly app when it went offline in 2017. Know as Douyin in China, it gives users the ability to watch and create short clips of up to 60 seconds.

Common Sense recommends the app for age 15+ mainly due to the privacy issues and mature content. TikTok requires that users be at least 13 years old to use the full TikTok experience.

We are aware that children in our school are using TikTok and have their own accounts. It is our responsibility to ensure that children using this app are aware of how to remain safe. We would recommend sharing this video with your children, if they are thinking of using TikTok.
