Mobile Phone Policy. Students are not allowed to use their devices, or have headphones in sight, anywhere in the school unless directed by a teacher to use them for a specific task. If they are seen by a member of staff, they will be confiscated immediately and given to Reception. When on school premises devices and headphones should be turned off and away. The exception to this rule is Year 12 and 13 who may use their devices in free classrooms, the Sixth Form study area, and the Sixth Form common room. Devices must not be used in any other part of the school (e.g. corridors). Sixth Form students are reminded that they act as role models to the rest of the school. Year 7 and Year 8 students must not bring into school mobile phones or watches with internet access or a camera. Any students found with such devices will have them confiscated* and they will receive a 60 minute Centralised Detention. Parents/ carers will be informed. * See confiscation below Policy Students and staff must be aware that: • Students are not allowed to use cameras to film footage, capture photos or record audio of staff or fellow students without the express permission of a member of staff. Images of staff may not be shared under any circumstances. • No student is allowed to upload to any external site any media footage taken in school (e.g., video, photos, audio, etc.) taken in school without express permission from the Headteacher. • If students need to contact their parents/carers, and vice versa, they should speak to Reception. No direct communication with parents/carers is permitted. • Sixth Form students may only listen to music (at a quiet level) using headphones in the Sixth Form Study Centre. However, students are strongly encouraged to avoid listening to audio when completing a task, as it reduces cognitive capacity. Students may not listen to music using headphones whilst completing a set task in class (e.g., revision). • There can be no expectation that students will have a device when planning lessons and the use of a device should be avoided where possible. If it is necessary for students to use their device then this must be supervised closely and devices must be turned off immediately upon completion of task. • Teachers must not set cover work which includes the use of a device. However, KS5 teachers may set work which requires the use of a device to access online resources.
Mobile Phone Policy. The consequences of any breaches of the school’s mobile phone policy will be determined by the principal in accordance with relevant Directorate policies and procedures and accepted school practice. Damage and loss ▪ Students bring their phones onto the school site at their own risk. ▪ In cases of malicious damage or theft of another student’s phone, existing school processes for damage to school or another student’s property apply. Insurance Insurance is the responsibility of parents/caregivers and students. Security and device management (home) Depending on the device brought to school, students and parents should ensure: ▪ strong passwords/ unlock codes are set ▪ device anti-virus software, if applicable, is up to date and functional ▪ that they are comfortable with privacy controls, cellular data access and personal information stored on the phone. Monitoring, evaluation and review Given the rapidly changing nature of phones, device usage and student and teacher familiarity with phones this policy should be reviewed at an earlier date than would normally be expected. Assuming implementation by the end of 2014, the recommended review date would be the beginning of 2016.

Mobile Phone Policy. The Employer will reimburse fifty dollars ($50.00) per month for the cost of a mobile phone plan for Employees who are required to have a mobile phone for their work.
Mobile Phone Policy. We discourage students from bringing mobile phones into school as it is considered that the principal aim for students when in school is to focus on educational achievement. Mobile phones can be a distraction when text messages and/or calls are received in school. The School cannot be held responsible for theft or abuse of mobile phones. Our experience is that students generally do not have great regard for the security of their own property and such phones might prove an attractive target. If, despite this, mobile phones are still brought into school they should be switched off during school hours. It is absolutely unacceptable for any lesson or other school activity to be disturbed by a student’s phone ringing, bleeping or vibrating. Furthermore, mobile phones should not be used by students in social areas at break or lunchtime and this includes using them to access music. Mobile phones are not to be used as a calculator or stop watch. If they are brought into school, they need to be switched off and not referred to at any point during the day. In the interest of both staff and students, trustees expressly forbid the use of any devices used to photograph or record, either covertly or otherwise, on the school premises or its organised activities. In order to discharge its duties to both students and staff the trustees will take extremely seriously and take appropriate measures, against any student who posts recorded footage or photographs of students or staff in the school environment on social networking websites such as ‘YouTube’, ‘Facebook’ and ‘Twitter’. Any such use will result in the phone being confiscated, held in the school office and usually returned at 3.45 pm. Parents may be contacted and the implications of further misuses of the phone explained. If there is a repeat of an incident parents or a responsible adult will be expected to come to school to collect and sign for the phone. Confiscated phones will be handed to the school office where they will be labelled. The phone will be returned at 3.45 pm by the school staff. Students will be asked to sign for their phone. If a mobile phone is confiscated more than once, reception will retain it and request that only parents/guardians can collect the phone from reception. Where incidents of bullying occur through the use of a mobile phone, these will be dealt with in accordance with the bullying policy.
