Keeping Children Safe – Filtering and Monitoring at Sacred Heart
At Sacred Heart, we take keeping our pupils safe very seriously. This includes in the online world.
We have filtering and monitoring systems in place at Trust and school level to ensure we can filter out as much unsuitable material as possible. Our staff have all know that if they come across an issue with a device or website, they must report it to a DSL.
Below , find our procedure and flow chart to report incidents:
1. Filtering And Monitoring Standards For Staff
Our DSL receives weekly reports which alert us to any suspicious activity that is acted upon. SLT termly check the system by searching for particular words using the pupils internet settings.
We educate our pupils about online safety through all out units. The pupils learn about keeping their details safe, ownership of material, how to report a problem and, importantly that they must report any issues or worries to an adult. Within our computing Intent, you can see the progression in learning throughout the units so the pupils develop the knowledge to keep themselves and others safe.
