Learning hub enhancements to support schools with remote safeguarding and online CPD during the COVID-19 pandemic

国家教育集团有限公司运营两个项目；国家网络安全（NOS）和国家学院（TNC）。国家网络安全（www.nationalonlinesafety.com）NOS支持学校履行其法定保障义务，以确保儿童的在线安全。我们通过我们的在线学习中心为整个学校社区提供培训和资源，包括所有学校员工，教师，管理者和家长。自2019冠状病毒病导致学校停课以来，对我们服务的需求大幅增加。学校仍然有保护责任，尽管是远程的，而且由于孩子们在网上花费的时间越来越多，无论是远程学习还是娱乐，在线安全从来没有成为一个如此普遍的问题。国家学院（www.thenationalcollege.co.uk）TNC为学校领导和教师提供远程视频持续教育。学校领导可以访问最新的视频网络研讨会，以有效地应对变化，如政策更新、新做法或最新的教育研究。教师可以使用法定的和响应性的持续专业进修图书馆。学校领导使用我们的服务来了解新冠肺炎带来的变化和更新。许多学校还指示教师在学校停课期间完成远程持续专业进修。学习中心和TNC共享相同的基础设施来提供我们的服务，公开称为学习中心。学习中心为学校提供了与家长、员工、教师、管理者和学校领导共享培训和资源的能力。他们可以通过可下载的证书和管理报告跟踪完成情况和证据遵从情况。我们将利用这笔资金进一步开发学习中心，以支持TNC和NOS。我们的目标是改善我们的基础设施，如托管和应用程序优化，以应对日益增长的需求，并增加用户因COVID-19而要求的一些新功能。*通过手机应用程序提供我们所有的指南，以便家长可以轻松访问。*包括学校可以将自己的CPD添加到我们的学习中心。许多学校正在录制他们想要分享的更新和培训。*改善报告功能，使学校能够在远程有效地管理培训。影响力资金的扩展将专注于提高我们的iOS和Android应用程序的影响力和上市速度。这还将包括开发应用程序以进行国际扩张。

Project summaryNational Education Group Ltd operate as two programmes; National Online Safety (NOS) and The National College (TNC).National Online Safety (www.nationalonlinesafety.com)NOS support schools to meet their statutory safeguarding duties to keep children safe online. We provide training and resources to the whole school community, including all school staff, teachers, governors and parents through our online Learning Hub.The demand for our service has significantly increased since the closure of schools due to COVID-19.

School leaders can access up-to-the minute video webinars to respond effectively to change, such as policy updates, new practice or the latest education research. Teachers have access to a library of statutory and responsive CPD.School leaders use our service to stay updated on the changes and updates as a result of COVID-19. Many schools have also instructed teachers to complete remote CPD in the period of school closures.The Learning HubNOS and TNC share the same infrastructure to deliver our service, known publicly as The Learning Hub. The Learning Hub provides schools with the ability to share training and resources to parents, staff, teachers, governors and school leaders.

We aim to improve our infrastructure, such as hosting and application optimisation, in order to handle the increased demand as well as adding some new features requested by our users as a result of COVID-19. These are:* Providing all of our guides through a mobile application so that they can be easily accessed by parents.* Including the ability for schools to add their own CPD to our Learning Hub. Many schools are recording their own updates and training that they want to share.* Improving the report functionality for schools to be able to manage training effectively whilst being remote.The extension for impact funding will focus on increasing the impact and speed to market of our iOS and Android application. This will also include developing the app to international expansion.
