Schools use filtering software to control and restrict access to certain websites and online content that may be deemed inappropriate or harmful for students. This software allows schools to create a safe and secure learning environment for students while they are using school computers or the school network.
Filtering software can block access to websites that contain explicit or violent content, hate speech, or illegal activities. It can also be used to prevent students from accessing social media sites, gaming sites, or other non-educational websites that can distract them from their studies.
By using filtering software, schools can ensure that students are using their computer and internet privileges in an appropriate and responsible manner. It can also help to protect students from cyberbullying and other online threats.
