* Access to the platform is made through the parent/carer's account, unless your child meets the age restrictions for the platform.

* An appropriate adult, like a parent or carer will remain in the room with younger members (primary school age children) during video or conference calls to help or join in. For older children (secondary school age) please make sure there is an appropriate adult nearby for help if they need it.

* For younger children, you will 'drop off' your child at the meeting like you would at a household or an assembly, so we know that they have an appropriate adult nearby if they need a hand. This will also give us a chance to talk with you if we need to.

* Your child must take part in the video call in a suitable communal environment (not a bedroom) and be appropriately dressed (fully dressed in clothing that covers top and bottom half of the body). All members of the household must be aware that the call is taking place and make sure that they are appropriately dressed, use appropriate language and behaviour when nearby or in the background. Some of the video calling software has a built-in option to 'blur' the background - you may feel this is an appropriate feature to turn on.

* You will make sure your child has 'logged off' the call correctly and signed out before turning off any devices.

* You and your child will not try to contact any leaders using these online tools outside of the pre-arranged calls. If you need to contact a leader for any reason you will do so following your normal contact procedures (i.e. emailing).

* Have a minimum of two adults present throughout the video call who will stay on the call until everyone has 'logged off'.

* Adults involved in the call will hold a current disclosure certificate (DBS) as required for their volunteer role.

* No one will contact you outside of any pre-arranged meetings using these online tools and if they do not need to contact you will do so following their normal contact procedures (i.e. emailing).

* Those holding the meeting will watch through and check any links or videos they may direct your child to. They will make sure everything they use is age-appropriate.

* Leaders and other adults on the call will use appropriate language/behaviour throughout the call.

* Those leader the meeting will ensure they are in a communal living space throughout the call. Where possible they will blur the background in any video calls and any members of their household will use appropriate language/behaviour throughout the call.
