⭐ A Moment of Gratitude for Safeguarding Leads ⭐ Today, we're reminded yet again of the incredible work done by safeguarding leads, as a meeting is cut short, to rush to a child in need... Their role is complex and can often be overlooked - but their impact is immeasurable. Whether it's responding to urgent concerns or proactively protecting vulnerable children, their dedication is inspiring. To all the safeguarding professionals, DSLs, and frontline teams, we see you, we appreciate you, and we thank you for your unwavering commitment to keeping children safe. #Safeguarding #Education #DSL #KeepingChildrenSafe

At first glance, a search for something like 'Diet' might seem innocuous. However, when combined with searches like 'cotton wool' and 'weight loss,' it could signal deeper concerns. Understanding the full context behind these searches is crucial for identifying potential risks and enabling you to intervene early and effectively. Smoothwall Monitor combines advanced technology with human moderation to provide deeper insights into student activity. By understanding the context of what students at risk do, say, or share on their devices, Smoothwall Monitor identifies potential risks that other digital monitoring solutions could miss. This approach helps you to: ✔️ Reduce false positives. ✔️ Uncover potential concerns that other systems could overlook. ✔️ Gain clearer insights, that you and your team can use to act swiftly and more effectively.
