"Why did we choose Family Zone? In the first instance, we wanted a product that had a strong focus on pastoral care and digital citizenship. But we also identified a further need: our parents wanted a tool that they could control, too. Some simple searching led me to Family Zone."

“As director of learning technologies, I was aware that the digital climate had changed dramatically since we first instituted our 1:1 program. With the internet so widely accessible on students’ personal devices, we could no longer confidently advise parents that we could manage their internet use at school. We needed a mobile solution to keep them protected.”
Michael Chiera, Director of Learning Technologies and Innovation

“In our Comet Bay learning community we have 4,500 kids from K-12, and in this community, parent concern over misuse of electronic devices and social media is quite high. So we wanted to try to float an education perspective, a parent safety perspective around kids and social media. At our ICT Conference two years ago, we attended a Family Zone presentation. It clicked.”
Phil Casas, Associate Principal

“After a one-year trial, we’ve just signed on for an additional two-year contract. Why? Because Family Zone is helping us with what we want to achieve here at school - and it’s also helping parents at home. The majority just want to know ‘How can we support our child at home and keep them safe online?’”
