Network monitoring

Please note that, in line with the latest safeguarding guidance in KCSIE 2023, we now monitor our networks much more closely (with support from our IT Provider) as part of our monitoring and filtering responsibilities. Our WIFI systems are monitored by our Internet Service Provider (ISP), IT Support and Designated Safeguarding Leads. Any device connected to our network (school or personal) will be monitored for user, web browsing, IP address and searching. By connecting to our WIFI systems, you are agreeing to this monitoring protocol.
