To remove any posts from your profile, simply hover over the offending post and on the righthand side you will see a cross and the word ‘Remove’ will appear.  If you click this button you will be asked if you are sure and then the post will be deleted.

Finally it is important to block the person who is posting the unwanted comments. To do this, click on their profile and scroll down. On the left hand side you will see a list which includes the option to ‘Report/Block This Person’.  You will then be able to report or block. If you report you will be asked your reasons for reporting the user.  It is possible to block a user without reporting them.

If your students are particularly concerned that posts are of a sexual or extreme nature, they may also need to report the post to the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) or the police.

They can do this in a number of ways such as visiting the CEOP website or, via the Facebook app, click CEOP. They could also call their local police station directly.

It is important that all of your pupils are aware of the role that CEOP have in protecting them online. You may wish to use the CEOP ThinkUknow presentation with your pupils which illustrates the ‘Report abuse’ button and the role of CEOP.
