Students are one of the best lines of defense to protect your schools, but
they are often reluctant to speak directly to an adult. SpeakUp for Safety
from Gaggle provides an easy way for your students to share concerns
about school safety and the well-being of fellow students.
Unlike Traditional Reporting Tools SpeakUp for Safety integrates directly with G Suite for Education or Office 365, which students already use on a daily basis. There’s no need to download an app or remember a phone number.
Easy to Use
+ Students see the SpeakUp for Safety address whenever they start to compose an email
+ Messages sent to SpeakUp for Safety result in an auto-reply, which explains how the tipline works. SpeakUp for Safety replies include a phone number that students can use for text messages or phone calls.
