Kingwood CLC - LBHF - LGfL Web-filtering Request Form

LGfL Web-filtering Policy

The LGfL default web-filtering policy has been chosen to restrict maximum inappropriate content. The LGfL default policy denies the following categories: Adware, Criminal Skills, Extreme, Gambling, Games, Hate Speech, Humour, Match Making, Network Unavailable, New URL, Occult, Pornography, Proxy Anonymizer, Safe Search, Search Keywords, Substance Abuse, Web Chat, Web E-mail. 

 

For further information regarding LGfL filtering policy can be found here: LGfL Statement on Whole-Site Blocking.

 

The way websites are filtered can mean that some sites that contain undesirable content may not always be blocked.  In such situations a request can be made through Kingwood CLC for specific websites to be blocked.

 

Blocking a Specified URL

This form allows you to register a request to have a specified URL or domain name added to the list of web-sites currently blocked by the LGfL filtering system. 

The request is passed automatically to the CLC Technical Lead who will block the requested website for your school.  We will also review the contents of the Web page(s) and where we consider it appropriate will add the URL to the list of websites blocked across the Local Authority.

We will act on Block URL requests as soon as possible but schools should be mindful that it may take a day or so to take effect.
