🎓 Teachers are in control

Teachers can:

• Take part in live Chats with the students and authors
• Delete messages in live Chats
• Download transcripts of live Chats
• See which students have logged in
• See what follow-up questions students have asked
• See the answers authors have given

🛡️ Safeguarding

The safeguarding of students is paramount to us. We take care to make sure our websites are safe and secure.

• All student-author interactions are overseen by our DBS-checked moderation team.
• Everything is text-only: no audio or video.
• Students are anonymous: authors only see their chosen ‘display name’.
• Should any safeguarding issues arise, we have a procedure to log and report it to teachers.

🔏 Privacy and data protection

We take privacy seriously, especially that of young people.

• We ask students for as little data as possible: only what is needed to run the activities.
• We keep student data for the shortest possible time.
• Student data never leaves our secure sites, and is never shared with any third parties.
