Online learning tools and connected devices are an established and essential part of the student experience.

 

Education or skills providers who have become Friendly WiFi Approved Venues have made it clear that – so far as technology allows – risk has been removed from their student’s online experience.

 

Having a government-recognised safe WiFi certification is a message which resonates with students, parents, staff, governors and DfE agencies.

 

Wherever you see the Friendly WiFi symbol the WiFi is filtered for:

• Pornography

• Webpages known by the Internet Watch Foundation (or other reputable list providers) to host indecent images of children, adverts or links to such content

 

Visitors will also benefit from safe WiFi, while inappropriate material any visitors may attempt to introduce to the environment will be blocked.

 

And, of course, the Friendly WiFi symbol displayed online and on marketing material tells prospective parents that the facility’s provision is safe.

 

Friendly WiFi – It’s good to know.
