These Child Safety Standards apply to all

users of the Educafe Community App. 

Educafe CIC has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) in any form. The Educafe Community App strictly prohibits any content, behaviour, communication or activity that exploits, harms or endangers children. 

(1). Zero Tolerance for CSAE

The Educafe Community App prohibits: 

> Any sexual content involving minors 

> Grooming behaviour or attempts to build inappropriate relationships with a minor 

> Sexualised messaging directed at or involving a minor 

Sharing, requesting, or distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) 

> Exploitation, trafficking, or coercion of minors 

> Any attempt to use the platform to facilitate offline harm to a child 

> Any such activity will result in immediate action. 

(2). Reporting Concerns

If you see or experience behaviour on the Educafe Community App that raises a child safety concern, you can: 

> Use the in-app reporting function 

> Email: itadmin@educafeuk.co.uk

Reports are reviewed promptly and treated seriously. 

If a child is in immediate danger, users should contact emergency services directly (999 in the UK). 

(3). Enforcement & Escalation

Where CSAE or child safety violations are suspected, Educafe CIC may: 

> Immediately suspend or permanently remove accounts 

> Remove content without notice 

> Preserve evidence 

> Report illegal activity to the National Crime Agency (NCA) or relevant law enforcement authorities 

> Cooperate fully with safeguarding agencies 

We reserve the right to take action without prior warning where necessary to protect children. 

(4). Safeguarding Approach

As a UK community organisation working in public spaces, Educafe CIC is committed to: 

> Safer recruitment and DBS-checked staff where appropriate 

> Clear codes of conduct 

> Safeguarding training for team members 

> Monitoring and moderation of community spaces within the Educafe Community App 

We design our digital spaces with child safety in mind. 

 (5). Compliance with Law

The Educafe Community App operates in accordance with UK safeguarding legislation, including: 

> Children Act 1989 & 2004

> Sexual Offences Act 2003 

> Online Safety Act 2023 

We comply with applicable reporting and data preservation requirements. 

(6). Commitment

The Educafe Community App exists to strengthen communities, not to create risk. Protecting children is fundamental to our mission of building safe, connected and resilient communities. 

Any user who violates these standards will lose access to the platform.
