👉 Reduce safeguarding concerns and bolster internal AP Learner safety is crucial, especially for vulnerable learners. How can we ensure those in internal alternative provision (AP) and with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) are receiving high-quality and personalised support? By partnering with EDClass's DfE-accredited platform, schools can: ✅ Enhance safeguarding in internal AP settings: Provide a safe and supportive online learning environment for vulnerable students. 👍 Support SEND students: Ensure they have access to appropriate resources and support to thrive online. 🌟 Build a positive and inclusive learning community: Where every student feels safe, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential. "A significant strength of EDClass is the oversight of pupils’ well-being and safeguarding. Leaders have established robust systems that allow their knowledgeable staff to check continually on pupils’ welfare and engagement with learning. Consequently, staff respond swiftly and appropriately to any concerns they identify." - EDClass Ofsted OEAS Report, May 2024 Let's work together so every learner feels safe and confident to conquer their aspirations. #OnlineSafety #SEND #AlternativeProvider #EDClass #DfEAccredited
