Traditionally, not-for-profit organisations have supplied web filtering tools to the education sector at county council level.
 

However, these were not flexible enough to give IT and network managers the tools they wanted to manage their own access parameters. They certainly did not have decentralised control, which gives heads of year the ability to temporarily grant access to a website for a specific class at a set time based on teachers’ lesson plans.

But new web filtering solutions are now available that do offer that flexibility. View our short presentation above, which includes audio, to find out more and then watch an example modern filtering in action here.
