In school we use an online filtering system called Netsweeper. Each week the head teacher receives a report from Netsweeper that where necessary, will highlight any inappropriate searches, inappropriate websites and which machines attempted to access these sites and when. From time to time the safeguarding team will perform their own searches which they know would be flagged up via Netsweeper to check the system is functioning appropriately and is keeping our children as safe as possible. We recognise that homes do not have this level of filtering in place which is why it is incredibly important that parents know what their children are accessing and when. Below is more information about school filtering and keeping up with children online.
