Our New Safeguarding Parental Controls Will Enhance Student Wellbeing and School-Parent Communication
With over 20,000 current users, our imabi Inspire safeguarding and wellbeing app has already had a significant impact within UK educational settings.
However, we believe we can always learn from feedback and improve our offer.
That’s why we’ve invested in implementing new parental controls, to improve communication between schools and parents to enhance student welfare.
What are the Key Parental Control Features?
Parental peace of mind
with access to the school's version of imabi Inspire, parents can now view the same features and content available to their children
they can use geo-location features to provide reassurance about their child's safety within the school environment
Improved communication
the new parental access feature facilitates better communication between schools and parents regarding their children's wellness
schools can provide specific parent-focused content, enabling tailored communication without sharing individual student data initially
the "Your Voice" feature empowers parents to share feedback directly with the school
Data security and privacy
the platform adheres to GDPR regulations and does not share child-specific content with parents, preserving student privacy
Intuitive interface
the parental interface is designed to be intuitive, with no specialised training needed
with seven clear features, navigating the platform is seamless, allowing easy access for parents
Universal safeguarding
by connecting families with the broader imabi ecosystem, parents can actively participate in their child's safety and well-being
Our CEO on the New Parental Controls
Given that imabi Inspire is designed to be an all-in-one safeguarding resource, this next step to introduce parental controls makes perfect sense in the progression of the platform’s offering,
Our CEO, Mark Balaam, says:
“Whilst the primary focus for imabi Inspire is to ensure ease of communication between students and those in a position of authority who are able to help – i.e. teachers – we recognise that, understandably, parents and guardians want to be in the loop too. So, we’ve looked to integrate that capability, giving a level of access to parents that provides reassurance and peace of mind – while ensuring student privacy at the same time. We want students to be confident in reaching out via the app, and we all know that sometimes we don’t want our parents to know certain things – so that is very much factored in.”
