Overview
- The Schools Partnership Program enables schools to prioritize moderation reports on bullying and harmful content for faster review by Instagram.
- Schools participating in the program will receive status updates on their reports and notifications on actions taken by Instagram moderators.
- The program was tested with 60 schools in a pilot phase, with Instagram reporting promising early results in reducing harmful posts.
- Educational institutions will gain access to resources on navigating Instagram safely and a profile banner indicating their partnership with the platform.
- Despite the program's launch, Instagram will rely on existing moderation resources without hiring additional staff, raising questions about scalability.
