Its CPD accredited courses and educational resources support UK schools in educating the whole school community in online safety– including all senior leaders, teachers, all school staff and parents – on how to make the internet a safer place for children.
James Southworth, co-founder of National Online Safety, said: “Congratulations to everyone at Doha College on becoming a National Online Safety Certified School. By completing our training programme, the school has shown its strong commitment to implementing an effective whole school approach to online safety. It can be increasingly difficult for schools and parents to stay ahead of online threats and ensure both children and staff are safeguarded from potentially harmful and inappropriate online material. We arm schools with the knowledge they need to understand online dangers and react in the best way possible to any problems.”
Dr Steffen Sommer, principal of Doha College also added: “At Doha College, safeguarding is the most important thing we do. As a digitally-active school where students have individual devices and use technology on a daily basis, digital awareness and skills are integral to everything we do. It is a great privilege that Doha College has been officially recognised with a National Online Safety Certified School Accreditation for its commitment to helping students stay safe online. A lot of effort has been undertaken by our digital leaders, Teresa Menton and Billy Hanrahan, to support our students and staff. It is a great reassurance that our students are well aware of what the risks are to ensure they remain safe online.”
