Schools Mobile
We know that for parents it is a challenge to know what children should be accessing online, how much time they should be spending on devices, and in particular how to go about keeping them safe and supporting their wellbeing. As such, we are pleased to announce that Princethorpe College is partnering with Schools Mobile, who have developed a system to add ready-made, age appropriate settings and filtering to your child's device. This can be added to each of your child's devices in just 90 seconds, making it easy for parents to be confident that their child is safe from harmful content and to manage their screen time easily. Our Wi-Fi connection in school is filtered and monitored, but Schools Mobile can provide this for your child's devices at all times, whether on home Wi-Fi, public Wi-Fi or on mobile data.
We will be running a three month free trial of Schools Mobile from January to March, which we would encourage all parents to use. Schools Mobile can be added to any device, including, iPhone/iPad, Android phones and tablets, Windows and Mac.
Following the free trial we will be working with Schools Mobile to provide the best price for parents to continue using the service. Prices will be confirmed once we have a clearer idea of the number of users, but this will be significantly less than competing software already offering this service, and with full support available both from Schools Mobile and the College.
You will be sent a licence code to sign-up for your free trial with more information, so please look out for this.
Kind regards
