Web Filtering. The internet has become a powerful tool for teaching and learning; however, students need to be careful and vigilant regarding some web content. To help protect students (and staff) from malicious web activity and inappropriate websites, the Department of Education and Training (DET) operates a comprehensive web filtering system. Any iPad connected to the internet through the school network will have filtering applied. The filtering system provides a layer of protection to staff and students against: • inappropriate web pages • spyware and malware • peer-to-peer sessions • scams and identity theft. This purpose-built web filtering solution takes a precautionary approach to blocking websites including those that do not disclose information about their purpose and content. The filtering approach applied by DET represents global best-practice in internet protection measures. However, despite internal departmental controls to filter content on the internet, illegal, dangerous or offensive information may be accessed or accidentally displayed on the screen. Teachers will always exercise their duty of care, but avoiding or reducing access to harmful information also requires responsible use by the student. Students must comply with the provisions of Cavendish Road State High School’s Information Communication Technology Acceptable Use Policy and Agreement as stated in the 2022 Student Study Planner. Students must not use another student’s or staff member's username or password to access the school network or another student’s iPad, including not trespassing in another person's files, home drive, email or accessing unauthorised network drives or systems. Additionally, students should not divulge personal information via the internet or email, to unknown entities or for reasons other than to fulfil the educational program requirements of the school. It is important that students do not publish or disclose the email address of a staff member or student without that person’s explicit permission. Students should also not reveal personal information including names, addresses, photographs, credit card details or telephone numbers of themselves or others. They should ensure that privacy and confidentiality is always maintained.

Students are required to report any internet site accessed that is considered inappropriate. Any suspected security breach involving students, users from other schools, or from outside the Queensland DETE network must also be reported to the school. The personally-owned devices have access to home and other out of school internet services and those services may not include any internet filtering. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to install a local filtering application on the student’s device for when they are connected in locations other than school. Parents/caregivers are responsible for appropriate internet use by students outside the school.

Web Filtering. The Department of Education, Training and Employment (DETE) operates a web filtering system to protect students and restrict access from malicious web activity and inappropriate websites. The DETE Web filtering system is installed on departmentally-owned computers, including Student loan devices. There is also a locally installed Web filtering client, which resides on the device and is active when using a non-DETE wireless connection to ensure filtering is always applied. When students are connected through DETE managed networks, they will have a high level of filtering applied. When students use their devices at home, the filtering system (proxy client), continues to function with a high level of filtering. It is important for parents to understand that filtering systems do not replace the need for parental supervision when students are online. Parent’s need to be aware that the child’s online activities are the shared responsibility of the parent and the student. Parents should also be aware that although a high level of filtering should block a student’s access to Facebook at school and at home, the department cannot guarantee this. If a student downloads software that is designed to modified security settings on the laptop, or change configuration settings on the tablet or software at home, access may be obtained.
Web Filtering. Web filtering policies will be applied to the device at all times. Any attempts to bypass the web filter or inappropriate use will result in complete termination of internet access on the device and/or repossession. The district web filter will not guarantee students are unable to access inappropriate content. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to ensure students do not access inappropriate content outside the district. It is also expected that any inappropriate use be reported to the district immediately.
