I have read, understood and discussed this agreement with my child, about the school rules for responsible internet use. I understand that the school will take all reasonable precautions to ensure pupils cannot access inappropriate material. I understand that the school cannot be held responsible for the nature or content of materials accessed through the internet. I agree that the school is not liable for any damages arising from use of the ICT facilities

I agree that, if selected, my son/daughter’s work or photograph may be published on the school’s website

I agree for my child to watch Parental Guidance (PG) rated films deemed suitable for viewing by their classroom teacher

The school may exercise the right to monitor the use of the schools computer systems, including access to websites, the interception of e-mail and the deletion of inappropriate materials where it believes unauthorised use of the school’s computer system is or may be taking place, or the system is or may be being used for criminal purposes or for starting unauthorised or unlawful text, imagery or sound.
