Child Safety & Protection Policy
The safety and wellbeing of every child in our care is our highest priority. This policy outlines our commitment to creating a secure, nurturing environment for all students.
Our Commitment
CodeDexters Academy is committed to providing a safe, secure, and supportive environment for all children and young people who use our services. We believe that every child deserves to learn in an environment free from harm, abuse, and exploitation. Our safeguarding practices are designed to protect children, empower parents, and maintain the trust families place in us.
How We Keep Children Safe
Staff Vetting & Training
All instructors undergo comprehensive background checks, reference verification, and mandatory child safety training before working with students.
Secure Online Platform
Sessions are conducted on secure, encrypted platforms with no unmonitored communication channels between instructors and students.
Supervised Sessions
All live sessions are recorded for quality assurance and safety. Parents have full visibility into what their child is learning.
Age-Appropriate Content
Every lesson is reviewed to ensure content is suitable for the intended age group, with no exposure to inappropriate material.
Data Protection & Privacy
We take the privacy of children's data seriously. Here's how we handle it:
We collect only the minimum data needed to provide our educational services.
Children's personal information is never shared with third parties for marketing.
Parents can request to view, edit, or delete their child's data at any time.
All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-standard protocols.
We comply with Nigeria's NDPR, COPPA (US), and GDPR-K (EU) regulations.
