Live Streaming

Live streaming is the broadcasting of real-time, live video to an audience over the internet. All you need to be able to live stream is an internet enabled device, like a smart phone or tablet, and a platform to broadcast on. You can liken it to an ‘on the scene’ news broadcaster or shows like Big Brother, where the phrase ‘You are live, please do not swear!’ was made popular.

Video Games can be great, with many social and educational benefits, however it is essential that children are protected whilst they play. Due to the nature of games, man can be totally inappropriate for primary aged children. Please see below for more information about the PEGI age rating system that you will find on all games.
