What Nextgen Blur does

A single-purpose extension designed for child safety and school filtering.

Blur sensitive content

Blur words, images, or areas of the page so young users aren’t exposed to inappropriate material.

Block by rule

Define rules and keywords to block or blur across sites. Control what appears in the browser.

Dashboard control

Manage settings and view usage from the tools.zifi.uk dashboard—ideal for schools and IT admins.

Privacy-first

We only collect what’s needed to run the extension and dashboard. No selling of data; you can opt out.

Built for education

Nextgen Blur is used by schools to protect pupils and keep browsing appropriate in the classroom and on school devices.

  • Primary schools – Simple blur and block rules for younger children.
  • High schools – Configurable filtering and dashboard oversight for IT and safeguarding leads.
  • All-through and MATs – One extension, one dashboard, consistent policy across sites.
Nextgen Blur – safe browsing for schools

Schools can configure blur and block rules from the dashboard, see when rules are applied, and keep settings in sync across devices—without collecting pupils’ personal data beyond what’s needed to run the service.

How it works

Install the extension, set your rules via the dashboard, and Nextgen Blur applies blur and block in real time as users browse the Monitored Sites.

1. Install the Nextgen Blur extension from the Chrome Web Store.

2. Configure word rules on the dashboard.

3. Blur and block rules run automatically. You can turn off monitoring from the dashboard, on a per site / device basis.
