In today’s digital-first world, children are exposed to online content from an increasingly young age. While this opens up exciting learning opportunities, it also introduces new risks—especially for those in early learning environments. As educators and childcare providers, fostering a safe online environment must become a key part of safeguarding practice.
Australia is leading the way in this space. The eSafety Commissioner, has developed a comprehensive Early Years Checklist—a free, practical resource to help early learning services build safe online environments for children, educators, and families.
Insights from a Former Data and Exams Manager.

In the UK, over 40% of children have been diagnosed with an allergy —a statistic that highlights the critical need for awareness and preparedness within school communities.
While some allergic reactions may be mild, others can be severe, life-threatening, and require immediate action. For school staff, staying informed isn’t just best practice—it’s essential for keeping pupils safe.
That’s where Talaxy steps in as a vital tool.
An Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) is a legal document designed to support children and young people aged up to 25 who have special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). An EHCP outlines the individual’s specific needs and the support required to help them achieve their educational, social, and health outcomes.
EHCPs replaced the previous Statement of Special Educational Needs (SEN) system in England as part of the Children and Families Act 2014. Unlike the previous system, EHCPs take a more holistic approach by integrating education, health, and social care services into one structured plan.
Running a school is no small task. From streamlining administration to enhancing student engagement and improving communication, the demands on schools are greater than ever. You need a solution that works with you, adapting as your needs change and supporting you in creating the best possible learning environment.
That’s where TALAXY comes in. More than just a school management system, TALAXY is a flexible toolkit that provides solutions to the real challenges you face daily.
The COVID-19 pandemic has cast a long shadow over the educational landscape, particularly affecting attendance and attainment among the most disadvantaged pupils. Recent data reveals that more than one in five children in England are frequently missing school, with attendance struggling to return to pre-pandemic levels.
