David Brown, Ofsted National Advisor for ICT, talking on Safer Internet Day radio about eSafety. Some key points from the MP3 below…
- All staff should be aware and involved
- eSafety should be part of the whole curriculum, not just within the ICT/Computing subject area
- Senior management responsible for training
- Policies that students understand and have been involved in creating
- Effective ways of reporting (examples: known members of staff, student buddies, on screen reporting buttons)
- No one way that fits every school
- eSafety of staff as well of students considered
Red flag? If the head says “talk to my head of department about that”.
