Why Online Safety staff love it

classroom.cloud’s online safety toolkit helps to always keep your online environment safe, by monitoring concerning activity, identifying students at risk, and spotting online safety trends. The very nature of online digital safety means that it’s a sensitive area that requires confidentiality.

R

Keyword and phrase monitoring

Powered by over 14,000 phrases in multiple languages, schools can monitor the safeguarding words that students are typing (even in Microsoft Teams).

R

Updating keywords

Add your own keywords to the safeguarding database that are relevant to your school and community – and even share them across your MAT/district!

R

Keyword cloud

When a keyword or phrase is triggered, it populates a word cloud. This is a nice easy way to spot trending topics.

R

Monitoring hours

Your school can also specify when you want the students to be monitored, for example, only during school hours or at all times when the student is using their school device or is on the school network.

R

Online Safety Groups

These can be created to deliver focused monitoring of, for example, specific year groups or students considered vulnerable. Specific settings can be applied to each group of student devices.

R

Integration

For schools with a MYCONCERN or CPOMS account, you can now directly integrate it with classroom.cloud.

R

Contextual intelligence-based Risk Index

The context of a triggered event is analyzed (the device used, time of day, websites visited, applications used, history of alerts) and a risk index number is generated, helping staff to determine its severity.

R

Online resources

Students have instant access to a range of online support resources – covering topics such as FGM, drug addiction, grooming, and bullying. Staff can also manage the pre-populated list and add any additional terms they feel are appropriate.

R

Report a concern

Students can now report a concern by sending a message in confidence to a trusted member of staff. (Windows/Chrome Students only).

You can select staff to be ‘Concern contacts’ and they will automatically receive an email that confirms the concern logged by a student in classroom.cloud. You can also choose additional staff members to receive the emails who aren’t a primary ‘Concern contact,’ such as those who might need to monitor the issues being reported by students, such as a Headteacher or School Principal.

R

Staff access levels

classroom.cloud allows schools to set up two levels of staff access: Online Safety Admins (giving full access to the tools and events) and Online Safety Users (who can only see triggered keywords and phrases). This ensures only authorized members of staff can access the details of triggered incidents and control the online safety settings.
