Lightspeed Alert vinder prestigefyldt pris for studerendes sikkerhed ved Bett UK Conference

London, England // 7. april 2023 - Lightspeed Systems^® er stolte af at meddele, at dens trusselsdetektionsløsning til skoler, Lightspeed Alert™, har vundet den prestigefyldte 2023 Bett Award i kategorien Wellbeing, Digital Wellness og Safeguarding Resources. Denne pris anerkender Lightspeed Alert's evne til at hjælpe skoler og multi-akademiske fonde (MAT'er) med at forhindre selvmord, selvskade, mobning og vold ved at opdage tidlige advarselsskilte på skoleejede enheder og læringsplatforme.

Statistics have repeatedly shown that artificial intelligence (AI) digital platforms provide early warning signs of student crisis, indicating a pressing need for effective protective measures in our schools. As more and more school devices are placed in the hands of students, educators and administrators are turning to Lightspeed Alert to ensure that they are doing everything possible to safeguard the physical and mental well-being of their students.

"It's a huge honour to be recognised by the judging panel for Lightspeed Alert's ability to safeguard students on digital devices," says Colin McCabe, International Director for Lightspeed Systems. "Lightspeed's mission is to provide safe, secure, and equitable education experiences for students, and this matters most when providing proactive insights into concerning behaviour allowing us to help schools intervene before an incident occurs.

Bett Awards hylder den inspirerende kreativitet og innovation, der kan findes gennem teknologi til uddannelse. Lightspeed's produkt blev bedømt af erfarne lærere med enestående viden og forståelse for informations- og kommunikationsteknologi (IKT), uddannelseskonsulenter og -rådgivere og højprofilerede IKT-journalister. Betts dommere målte Lightspeed Alert's fordele for skoler, dens omkostningseffektivitet, brugervenlighed og supportniveau, hvorefter den blev anset for at være en fremtrædende inden for sektoren og udvalgt som en vinder.

The Bett Awards were announced at Bett UK, an annual conference series hosted in London, UK for the global community of education technology. During the show, Lightspeed received the following feedback from the Bett Awards’ judges: "The Lightspeed Alert product is innovative, utilising technology to alert the relevant people of potential safeguarding issues before it’s too late. It focuses on secondary response to wellbeing issues as a preventative measure for young people in crisis—going beyond just advising learners on keeping safe, it helps to get inside their thought processes in order to actually keep them safe."
