In light of the current situation, we are now offering our support across the nation by donating Whisper to all new schools whilst closures are in effect. Schools can now continue to support their children whilst working from home, safely. Please find more information below, contact us, or signup for Whisper now.
Clear, Safe, and Effective Reporting
Our safeguarding duties no longer stop at the school gates. The boundaries between in-school and out-of-school incidents are now blurred, as social media and technology give students 24/7 access to each other.
Problems may be more pervasive now, but screenshots and chat logs have made them easier to evidence.
Do your students have a safe way to disclose their issues in confidence?
What about staff or parents that have concerns?

Whisper is fantastic! It keeps us up-to-date with alerts on issues in the school by email and SMS to ensure that children are well-protected and have someone who can help them.

Whisper® Knowledgebase
What is Anonymous Reporting?
In contrast to the promises of anonymity, a reporting process often equates to varying levels of transparency, accountability and communication. As such, many Anonymous Reporting processes are not effective and compromise the ability for a person passing information to be truly anonymous.
Why Should You Use an Anonymous Reporting Tool?
An anonymous reporting tool empowers your community to speak up safely without fear of repercussions. This gives you greater visibility of issues that may otherwise go unreported allowing your community to report issues without fear of consequences.
