Hi Nathan, Hopefully Nova was able to resolve your DNS issue, if not let me know we have moved many schools off of some/all Capita services and the associated network KCOM or others Cheers Matthew eSafety4schools ( formerly Capital Bytes)

Hi Nathan, You could try [email protected] she deals with the cancellation process for O365, DNS and the like so may be able to help Matthew eSafety4schools (formerly Capital Bytes LTd.,)

The 2007 Byron report recommended Filtering in all education establishments - and the government ( Labour) accepted these recommendations but did not legislate them - ie make them law, this document from what I see takes it that step further and makes it a statutory requirement to have filtering and Monitoring in schools. As the report was written in 2007 the big fear was excessive gaming and the negative effective on children and their general well-being - so it was all about filtering, no mention of Monitoring - this is new and part of this gov's Prevent agenda - how times have changed!! Like Steve of Opendium we too banged our heads against various government depts - DfE, Police, Prevent offices themselves etc., to gain access these mythical Radicalisation terms that have been deemed by 'those that know' to need blocking. Eventually like others we did it ourselves, though all the effort from the education focused filtering/monitoring industry will only work with parental engagement as once home most of it stops.

Hi The Internet Watch Foundation - IWF - that grade and block such images has a very useful page that list best practices in an instance like yours - https://www.iwf.org.uk/resources/best-practice-guide I have not read the act info as posted above, but as per the IWF you should try and delete these images.
