Summary

Swiggle child-friendly search engine from the Online Safety experts at SWGfL.

Searching the internet for images or content can sometimes be a bit hit and miss. It can be hard to find the right content and sometimes you can stumble onto things that might make you feel upset, embarrassed or sad. Swiggle can help you with your first steps on the road to better online searching.

Swiggle uses the very latest search technologies to make your searches more useful. It not only gives you safer access to online content but encourages responsible behaviour too.

With our new friend SwiggleBot to help you, you can search for great information and images, and if you do see things that you think are not right, you can let us know and we’ll consider blocking it. You can even use SwiggleBot to cover your screen while you go and get help from an adult.

Great idea to re-direct search results to swiggle. However Chrome warns the user (which is fair) but in a school can we use Group Policy to disable this warning so pupils can't disable the extension?
