Do you have official school Facebook or Twitter accounts?

Can't you just set the options for "who can post to my page" and disable it? No lists required just 100% block

Yeah that's set - so people can't post to my page. People can comment on my posts though. That's what the head wants turning off... I'll see if she can find the name of the company first, see how much it costs and then put forward my suggestion.

You can set it so posts need to be approved before they go live... worth switching on if that's what's needed, then just don't approve any...

 

[Steve21]

Ah yeah think only way to do that is by word lists (There's loads of free ones on the webs though specifically for facebook)

Posts and comments are 2 different things. I have all that stuff set up already. I could manually hide comments, but there have never been any bad ones, just people tagging family members. Think it would be a shame to stop it to be honest.

[RichCowell]

Deleted my post as I realised I'd done the wrong thing... There used to be an option to have to approve replies before they appeared live too... can't find it now...

 

Ours is pretty open, we've had a couple of bad reviews, but only irked ex-students, some from the 70's & 80's... Most have been 5* though, but it if got more serious I'd look at what you've done too @Joanne and make it a community rather than a high school...

[Joanne]

Yeah we had a review talking about a letter that had gone out was disgusting etcs and more recently one claiming her child was being bullied. Really not the correct platform to get the issue resolved!! Parents name has been passed on to the right staff, then we've had kids reviewing 1 star and leaving no comment... I hated the reviews section. I'm glad it's gone! Hah!

We have a very positive facebook page, we allow commenting and reviews. Only twice in 2 years has a parent used it to moan and both times we just deleted the post and the parent was contacted so we were able to resolve the issue. The head sometimes comments/answers questions as him (as opposed to the school login) he says it looks better if the head is taking an interest.

 

its become a valuable communication tool for us.

If anyone else wants to block comments, here are the words to add to the "Page Moderation" setting:
