Expanding Instagram’s School Partnership Program to Help Teens Stay Informed
Meta is expanding Instagram's School Partnership Program with school channels, verified student communities, and prioritized safety reporting for teens.
Meta announced an expansion of Instagram's School Partnership Program, now covering nearly 17,000 schools, adding channels, school stories and notes, clubs and teams, a student directory, and prioritized reporting for teen safety issues. Verification of high school students is handled by third-party validator UNiDAYS, and parents can monitor participation via Family Center. The program is aimed at keeping teens informed and safe on Instagram, not cybersecurity.
