Erica: ‘no’ (shakes head)<br />

Amanda: no but you’re it’s almost like you’re trying to tell me to give me an<br />

example of things that can happen. People can say things that are a bit mean<br />

and then maybe you need to sort it out or you need to get help to sort it out but<br />

it could be a bit upsetting and that’s one of the things that can happen<br />

Head of technology: is it worth saying that these are all students at college<br />

that we are talking about here<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (raises eyebrows)<br />

Amanda: yea<br />

Head of technology: apart from (male name) who left last year<br />

Amanda: yea er can I just check cos I have heard that this can happen I mean<br />

things happen with my friends online and stuff. Would you say is this<br />

something that has greatly upset you or do you think that this is something<br />

that can happen with your friends when you’re online? Ooo sorry I’ve done an<br />

‘either’ ‘or’ there! Is this something that you’re really upset about<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (raises eyebrows)<br />

Amanda: okay yes. Is this something that you think can be a problem online<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />

Amanda: yes. Do you need from having shared this now help with taking this<br />

further now<br />

Erica: ‘no’ (shuts eyes and shakes head)<br />

Amanda: no okay. So I understand where you’re coming from it’s not<br />

necessarily something that can be solved but it is a potentially upsetting thing<br />

that can happen on the internet which you wanted to let me know about<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />

Amanda: is that a good explanation<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (raises eyebrows)<br />

Amanda: okay thank you<br />

The Head of technology had to make absolutely sure this was not a safeguarding issue<br />

so he continued the conversation<br />

Head of technology: okay are you very upset by what happened<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />

Head of technology: do you want me to help you<br />

Erica: ‘no’ (shakes head)<br />

Head of technology: no. Do you think your area staff will sort this out<br />

Erica: ‘no’ (shakes head)<br />

Head of technology: no. So you just want to let it go<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />

Head of technology: yes. okay. Can I just ask Erica do you think this is like<br />

something like you’ve just fallen out with one of your friends and it’ll be<br />

alright in the long run<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />

Head of technology: is that what we’re saying<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />

Head of technology: it’s not about anyone from outside college<br />

Erica: ‘yes’ (nods head)<br />
