I would absolutely recommend Safer Schools, and not only would I, we already do in the highlands. When I do my online safety training to parents and to schools I actually include 3 or 4 slides which talk directly about safer schools and the benefits to the highland schools

Apps like Safer Schools has really helped because it gives a one stop shop that they can go to get all the information that they need around a variety of subjects by keeping themselves safe online.
