National Online Safety - Safe Remote Education Accreditation

Posted on: 08/02/2021

The School is delighted to share the news that they have been recognised for their commitment to providing safe remote education and have achieved National Online Safety, Safe Remote Education Accreditation. 

The School has successfully completed a comprehensive remote education training programme demonstrating their commitment to providing high-quality remote education, keeping children and young people safe online and supporting pupil wellbeing.  The National Online Safety Safe Remote Education Accreditation has been awarded for a successful approach towards safeguarding children and supporting pupil wellbeing during remote teaching and learning.

James Southworth, co-founder at National Online Safety, said: “Congratulations to everyone at The Charles Dickens School on achieving their National Online Safety Safe Remote Education Accreditation. By completing our training programme, the School has shown its strong commitment to implementing the most effective approach to delivering remote education. It can be increasingly difficult for schools to keep up with DfE expectations surrounding remote education to ensure both children and staff follow the necessary safeguarding protocols and know how to spot any potential wellbeing issues. We’ve armed schools with the knowledge they need to understand their responsibilities and how best to react to any problems.”
