How we keep children safe

Children's safety comes first. Here is how teachers are checked before they can teach, the rules in every lesson, how to report a concern and what happens next, and how we protect your family's data.

Before a teacher can teach

Every teacher is checked first

Teachers can't teach until our team has confirmed a background check and they have signed our teaching agreement.

  • Our team reviews every application

    Teachers apply to teach with us, and only our team can approve a teacher to teach.

  • Background check confirmed

    A teacher can't be approved until our team has confirmed their background check.

  • Teaching agreement signed

    Every teacher signs our teaching agreement, which includes our safeguarding rules, before they can be approved.

How we recruit and support our teachers

In every lesson

Classroom rules

The same rules for every lesson, for every teacher.

  • Lessons stay in our classroom

    Lessons happen only inside the CurioKids classroom, never on other apps or video services.

  • No contact outside CurioKids

    Our teaching agreement doesn't allow teachers to contact children or families outside CurioKids, or to share personal contact details.

  • A grown-up nearby

    We suggest a parent or carer stays nearby during lessons, especially with younger children.

  • Speak up about anything

    The “Report a concern” button is in every lesson. Anything that feels wrong is worth reporting.

Reporting a concern

If something doesn't feel right, tell us

You don't need to be sure something is wrong to report it.

How to report

  1. In a lesson or in the app

    Press “Report a concern”. It's in every lesson and throughout the app. Tell us what happened in your own words.

  2. By email

    Email hello@curiokidslearning.com with what happened, when, and the names of anyone involved.

  3. If a child is in danger now

    Call the police or emergency services first (999 in Singapore and Malaysia), then tell us.

Email hello@curiokidslearning.com

What happens next

  1. Our team is alerted

    A report sent with “Report a concern” is recorded and our team is alerted as soon as you send it.

  2. We look into it

    We review every report and may contact you for more details.

  3. We act to protect children

    Where a child may be at risk, we can stop a teacher from teaching while we look into it, and end their teaching agreement.

The full process is in our safeguarding policy.

Messages

Contact stays on CurioKids

Teachers and families keep in touch inside CurioKids.

  • Contact details are blocked

    Messages on CurioKids block the sharing of personal contact details.

  • Everything stays on CurioKids

    Teachers agree not to contact children or families outside CurioKids.

Child mode

Hand over the device, keep control

Child mode is for when your child uses CurioKids on your device.

  • You're in control

    Child mode lets your child use CurioKids on your device while you stay in control.

  • Protected by your PIN

    Only your PIN switches back to your parent account, so your child can't change your plan or payment details.

Data protection

Your family's data

Where your data lives, who handles payments, and what stays out of the children's side of CurioKids.

  • Hosted in Singapore

    Your family's data is hosted on AWS in Singapore.

  • Payments by Stripe

    Payments are handled by Stripe. CurioKids never sees your full card number.

  • No ads or trackers for children

    There are no ads or third-party trackers inside the classroom or the children's app.

Read our privacy policy for what we collect and why.

Promises

What we never do

  • We never let a teacher teach before our team has confirmed their background check and they have signed our teaching agreement.
  • We never run lessons outside the CurioKids classroom.
  • We never show ads or use third-party trackers inside the classroom or the children's app.
  • We never see your full card number: payments are handled by Stripe.
  • We never pass off an AI-assisted lesson summary as the teacher's own words: AI-assisted summaries are drafted from the teacher's notes and labelled.
