How we can help

Technology enriches learning experiences but can also expose young people to negative activities or behaviours. At the extreme end of the spectrum this can include gang rivalry, bullying, suicide and sexual abuse.

As the number and types of devices increase in your school, it can become an impossible task to monitor activity effectively and meet your ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ responsibilities.

Our digital monitoring service is designed to keep children safe online in an ever-changing digital world, and annually our service captures over 200,000 violations.

We are offering a 4-week trial of the software. If you would like to take advantage of this offer, please complete the form below.

How our Digital monitoring Service works

Our safeguarding analysts will monitor, analyse and alert your school to any concerning incidents, so you can respond quickly and appropriately.

  • Once our monitoring software is installed to cover school devices we monitor activity daily for incidents of concern.
  • We determine the level of risk of concerning captures.
  • Any high-level risks are immediately raised with the school.
  • Our regular reports provide evidence for Ofsted and governing bodies.
