Securus Internet Child Safety
Software
Meet Duty of Care, Ofsted and DfES requirements for child internet
safety by improving student behaviour and minimising racism, bullying,
drugs, predator grooming and inappropriate conduct.
Why The Need For SECURUS?
SECURUS software focuses specifically on internet child safety
in the school, college and university.
All schools, colleges and universities face increasing problems
with students who are able to circumvent safeguards and access unacceptable
material on non-standard, unrecognised websites. To rely solely
on traditional blocking and filtering systems is completely inadequate.
Traditional filtering software and services are now very dated and
have failed to move to the next stage,
which is capturing the data at the screen
on the PC.
Filtering software and service providers are leaving huge areas
of the internet exposed, and children are open to very real dangers
from Internet Abuse, Paedophile Grooming, Chat Rooms, Racial Attacks,
Anti-Semitism and Instant Messaging.
Cyber-bullying and cries for help occur in a number of offline
applications such as Microsoft Word™. Offline activity is either
unmonitored in the class or at best subject to random real-time
checks by a teacher or a IT consultant and is virtually impossible
to manage in a class with more than 10 children/students.
The only foolproof and systematic way of detecting serious incidents
is by implementing SECURUS.
SECURUS monitors every PC and captures every screenshot and highlights
all breaches of the school or college Acceptable Use Policy. Evidence
exposing the true nature of the situation each child is involved
in, including potentially life threatening cases of abuse and paedophile/
predator grooming can then be acted swiftly and in accordance with
the ‘Every Child Matters’ strategy.
SECURUS acts as a comprehensive safety net and reports any unacceptable
behaviour on the network, including the possible actions of undetected
adult or juvenile sex offenders.
The Benefits We Deliver
- Improved and enhanced pupil safety and behaviour
- Improved teacher morale
- Reduced parental concerns
- Reduced Head Teacher and School Governor liabilities
- Increased learning effectiveness
- Reduced off-task activity
- Insights into pastoral care issues
- Ethos of ‘freedom with responsibility’
Transforming behaviour
PC misuse is exposed and screenshot evidence effectively manages
unacceptable behaviour.
SECURUS acts as both a deterrent and an early warning system, and
has successfully transformed a number of failing schools. Incidents
of abuse can be addressed promptly thereby avoiding escalation.
Confrontation and disruption in the classroom are eliminated since
the screenshot evidence can be discussed in an appropriate controlled
environment, with parents or other staff members if necessary.
