Reporting abuse
The symbol on the 'Report Abuse' button below, which looks a bit like an eye on legs, represents the Virtual Global Taskforce (VGT), a group of law enforcement agencies who work together to fight online abuse relating to children.

If you click on the button you will be reporting a problem directly to someone at CEOP (the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Agency) You are then likely to be contacted by a social worker or a police officer, to talk through your report in more detail. They need to do this to make sure you are safe.
It is also a good idea to talk to your parents/carers about your report to CEOP, although if your report concerns a family member, CEOP will not make contact with them until an investigation has been completed.
If you do not want to make a report by pressing the button but are still worried about something online, then please talk to a member of Student Services Team at school, or to an adult you can trust.
Alternatively, please click on the ‘Report a Concern’ button found on the homepage of SharePoint. You can access this inside and outside of school.
