Our founding vision was to help ensure children don't fall through the gaps of siloed approaches to safety.
A pandemic and global uncertainty and their impact on student wellbeing has amplified that need.
Child mental health the world over is now at crisis levels. The negative impact on learning is already being felt. The pressure on schools to address it has never been greater.
The good news
Educators recognise that when they share the responsibility for child digital wellbeing the results can be transformative. A whole school approach increases and strengthens provision and helps to close the gaps.
It also reduces the pressures and limitations caused by disproportionate workloads on single individuals, such as IT teams and pastoral staff.
Our solutions empower each member of the school community with the tools and knowledge to play a greater role:
Parents at home; teachers in the classroom; leadership, IT, and pastoral staff in school; and children wherever they happen to be.
Viewed holistically, our solutions also harmonise into a synergist and practical roadmap. Educational organisations can use it to evaluate existing approaches and plan an elevation of current provision to a level capable of addressing today's challenges.
We call this roadmap our Digital Safety and Wellbeing Framework.

How it works
Written by our world-leading experts and in consultation with our customers, our Framework helps leadership and wellbeing staff gain clarity on what community-wide student digital safety and wellbeing can look like.
It's built around the three fundamental pillars commonly used in the health and safety frameworks leaders will already be familiar with:
Prevention, Intervention and Education.
Each pillar addresses an essential component of an effective digital safety and wellbeing strategy.
Our schools and districts use this, supported by our Success Teams, to identify their priorities and plan the steps needed to achieve a more efficient and robust standard.
Our Digital Safety and Wellbeing Framework shows school leadership how and where they can elevate safety and wellbeing provision to meet today's challenges.
Our Framework shows Leaders how they can reduce the digital risks and distractions that impede learning. Reducing risks supports better wellbeing which supports better academic achievement.
Better support every child
It helps them to identify and close safety and wellbeing gaps. Also to spot risks quickly for earlier intervention. And, to create more ways for their vulnerable students to speak up.
Our Framework helps Leaders see and achieve a more efficient and accurate resource allocation. It helps them spot opportunities to streamline existing safeguarding operations for efficiency and cost savings.
Support staff mental health
It shows them how to achieve a more balanced distribution of safety and wellbeing responsibility. And how to avoid the stresses caused by disproportionate loads and ensure everyone has the tools and support to play their part.
Our Framework shows pastoral leaders how to expand the number of opportunities they provide for vulnerable students to speak up. It shows them how to increase student awareness and promote peer-to-peer education, while decreasing the numbers of students requiring intensive support.
It shows how to achieve easier, quicker and more accurate visibility of students at risk. And to know where and when to intervene earlier for reduced escalation and the need for longer term support.
Our Framework shows how teachers and parents/carers can play a more active role and contribute to ensuring digital safety and wellbeing in school and at home.
It helps identify and close safety and wellbeing gaps. As well as shows how to supplement existing approaches and demonstrate a proactive strategy across the whole school community.
