Overview

As an organisation, we have established clear roles, responsibilities, and strategies to ensure the effectiveness of our filtering and monitoring systems when it comes to the use of technology. Our DSL and Senior Leadership Team review these systems annually. Although we monitor all our devices, we understand that no system is 100% effective. To ensure that our children’s safety is maintained, we conduct regular training for our staff on supervising children using devices and integrate online safety into many of our activities and safeguarding policies.
