Using the Overview Report in Monitor

Updated
This article is for Safeguarding and Reporting contacts.

You can use the Overview Report to review summaries of Alerts that have occurred during a selected time period. 

You can assess if your students have experienced any increase in Monitor Alerts. If you see a large increase in the number of Alerts, especially in a specific Risk Category, you can use this information to create an outreach program. You can also use an increase to investigate filtering content or websites with your IT contacts. The first tiles display a:

  • count of Level 3+ Alerts
  • count of Level 5 Alerts
  • column chart of Level 3+ Alerts by Risk Category

You may notice an increase in the number of Alerts at different times in your school year. You can also correlate changes with students’ reactions to major sports, media, or social Alerts. The next tiles display column charts of:

  • Level 3+ Alerts by Month and by Risk Category 
  • Level 3+ Alerts over Time by Risk Level

You may need to determine whether Alerts occur during or outside |school hours. For example, you may want to reach out to parents if you notice a large number of Alerts in evening hours, compared to engaging your teaching staff when you observe potential distractions during school hours. The final set of tiles shows:

  • Level 3+ Alerts by Risk Category and by Hour of Day 
  • Level 3+ Alerts by Risk Category and by Day of Week
