Supporting schools safeguarding:
- Designated Staff Proofreader: Each school account requires a designated staff proofreader responsible for the final review and sign-off of the yearbook. No yearbook will proceed to print without written permission from this appointed proofreader, ensuring that content aligns with the school’s values and standards.
- Customisable Editor Permissions: Each yearbook project is managed by editors and members, with editors having a higher level of access and control over content and settings. Editors can enable or disable system features, granting them full control over the project to meet safeguarding and well-being needs.
- Secure Member Access: Schools have the option to invite students via a unique invite code, which can be regenerated by the editor or an AllYearbooks team member if needed. Schools may also choose to manually add members to further control student access.
- Team Monitoring and Support: Our AllYearbooks team provides ongoing support to schools. If any potential safeguarding issues arise or any content is flagged, we promptly notify the lead editor and designated staff proofreader to address it.
