Lawn Overseeding and Cutting ?

Have sown a new lawn and patched existing ones but never overseeded a full lawn.

Just wondered how to go on regarding cutting the lawn after overseeding without risking damaging or uprooting the new seedlings ?
Do you avoid cutting for a couple of weeks or just cut as normal but on a high setting ?

 

Like everyone else we all seem to have rotary type mowers these days which might suck up the seed rather than the cylinder mowers .

Generally pre-germinate the grass seed in a bit of fine compost, just enough so you see the very fine roots emerging; they do seem to establish quicker before the birds can get them.
