I’m using ‘what’s new’, ‘my activity streams’, ‘custom activity stream’, and that seems to be working well for me.

We sail on the Orwell and know it well. Over recent years we have seen far more seals, but also mats of green floating weed by the middle of summer.

If I were the Smoothwall engineer, I could argue that (assuming it is) the Vimeo open player was still blocked, even if all the content on vimeocdn.com was allowed. Ruth Miskin’s site appears to be locked to only her videos. However should a pupil navigate to any other accessible site that hosts their videos on Vimeo, their video content would play “unfiltered”.

I have never thought there was a problem allowing the architecture hosts ( which tend to be more constant), as distinct from the content (which tends to be more dynamic), per se. I use referrer headers all the time, but then you still often need to exclude the ads and trackers, as per KCSIE. I think it depends on the individual site structure as to the optimal way to achieve this.

I think you actually need "f.vimeocdn.com" which is the vimeo player scrips host rather than "vimeocdn.com" which also includes "unwanted content" if you wanted to really tie it down specifically.

Wondering if it means that more schools will be eligible? None of the rural schools I’ve ever worked in ever has been.

Also for a mini iPad. It’s difficult to read. Tiny text in lots of empty space.

It certainly could if there was a badly designed policy. Have you checked the abtutor policies?

You could consider the Ts&Cs and Privacy Policies and see "where minimum ages are defined", how they match with the ages of your pupils?

Not forgetting that from a muscular-skeletal perspective, a desktop with a well positioned monitor and keyboard is better for the developing bones of kids than being sat hunched over a laptop for lengthy periods, regardless of how "un-wow" it looks.

We did similar for our daughter. A Toyota Yaris after "a friend" reversed into the Peugeot 206 she was driving (that had previously been my Dad's) and wrote it off. It all comes down to "cost per mile" Outlay, insurance, servicing, fuel economy, probable mileage and what you might expect to get back at the end. When you do the sums, its not always obvious when comparing cars what the overall best value will be.

But that's Netsweeper, so a split vote.... We have SBB Netsweeper, but I would never describe that as "managed". There's no category for "mitigated" to correct their "less than safe" configuration.

I asked, it said:

Same here.....?

We are blocked for pupils now, but envisage that it won't be long before we are asked to allow it.

I asked ChatGPT and this is what it told me: Whilst accurate, its a bit vague. So how do you do this, and how are you planning to handle images, malicious code creation etc in future?

I tried Swiggle but its not very robust and was quite happy to offer Andrew Tate's "preferences" and other nasty stuff in the search results (if you push it), so wouldn't recommend it.
