Safeguarding Changes for 4.44

The following changes have been made for 4.44:

  • When safeguarding record, notes or risks are raised they are no longer sent to staff members who are inactive. This is true even if they're added to the distribution list.

  • If a staff member is blocked from a record, that record is not removed from their inbox.

  • If a record is marked as not visible to learners then learners will not receive notifications if the record it updated.

    The red notification badge, now reflects the notification settings selected eg.

    • If only urgent notifications are turned on, then the badge shows the number of urgent unread messages only

    • If only non-urgent notifications are turned on, then the badge shows the number of non-urgent unread messages only

    • If both urgent and non-urgent notifications are turned on, then the badge shows the total number of unread messages.

  • Tutors can now create Records directly from a Learner's Safeguarding history. There is no need to return to the Safeguarding homepage.
