A SCHOOL has issued a warning to parents after it was made aware pupils were watching videos of a YouTube character called Jeffy, which contain inappropriate and adult content.
The character, which may appear at a glance to parents as innocent, swears and makes sexual references.
Ryhope Infant School posted on its Facebook page: "It has come to our attention that several of our children have been viewing videos of a character named "Jeffy" on YouTube at home.
"This content is highly inappropriate for children, despite the fact that it might seem child friendly at first glance (puppets, classrooms etc). This includes graphic sexual content. We have also been made aware that these videos are still available to view in restricted mode.
"We advise that you monitor your child's online activity carefully and use YouTube's reporting system to report this type of content."
