In such circumstances, there is an expectation that access is pre-planned, risk assessed and recorded, and permission given by ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Photographs and videos provide valuable evidence of pupils’ achievement and progress in a variety of contexts and can be used to celebrate the Headteacherwork of the school. In line with GDPR they are used only with the written consent of parents/carers which is secured in the first instance on a child’s entry to the school. Records are kept on file and consent can be changed by parents/carers at any time. (See GDPR policy for greater clarification). Photographs and images of pupils are only stored on the school’s agreed secure networks which include some cloud based services. Rights of access to stored images are restricted to approved staff as determined by ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ . Staff and pupils may have temporary access to photographs taken during a class session, but these will be transferred/deleted promptly. Parents/carers should note that there may be some children who are at risk and must not have their image put online and others who do not want their image online. For these reasons parents/carers must follow the school’s Acceptable Use Agreement and refrain from taking or posting online photographs of any member of the school community, other than their own child/ren. Staff and other professionals working with pupils, must only use school equipment to record images of pupils whether on or off site. See also GDPR. Permission to use images of all staff who work at the school is sought on induction and a written record is located in the personnel file. The school allows staff, including temporary and peripatetic staff, and visitors to use personal mobile phones and devices only in designated green areas (office and staffroom) and never in the presence of pupils. All other areas are deemed Red areas. Under no circumstance does the school allow a member of staff to contact a pupil or parent/carer using their personal device. Parents/carers may only use personal mobile phones and devices in designated areas unless otherwise informed, e.g. for specific events and activities. Under no circumstance should images be taken at any time on school premises or on off-site school events and activities of anyone other than their own child, unless there is a pre-specified permission from ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ . When a parent/carer is on school premises but not in a designated area, their phone/s must be switched off and out of sight. Pupils are not allowed to bring personal mobile devices/phones to school. The school is not responsible for the loss, damage or theft of any personal mobile device that is brought into school. Users bringing personal devices into school must ensure there is no inappropriate or illegal content on the device. Personal mobiles must never be used to access school emails and data. The only exception would be where a closed, monitorable system has been set up by the school for use on a personal device. New personal technological devices may offer opportunities for teaching and learning. However, the school must consider educational benefit and carry out risk assessment before use in school is allowed. Parents/carers, pupils and staff should not assume that new technological devices will be allowed in school and should check with ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ before they are brought into school. There may be occasions in school when either a pupil or an adult receives an offensive, abusive or inappropriate message or accidentally accesses upsetting or abusive material. When such a situation occurs the pupil or adult must report the incident immediately to the first available member of staff, the DSP, DDSP or the headteacher. Where such an incident may lead to significant harm, safeguarding procedures should be followed. The school takes the reporting of such incidents seriously and where judged necessary, the DSP will refer details to social care or the police.

Photographs and videos provide valuable evidence of pupils’ achievement and progress in a variety of contexts and can be used to celebrate the work of the school. In line with GDPR they are used only with the written consent of parents/carers which is secured in the first instance on a child’s entry to the school. Records are kept on file and consent can be changed by parents/carers at any time. (See GDPR policy for greater clarification). Photographs and images of pupils are only stored on the school’s agreed secure networks which include some cloud based services. Rights of access to stored images are restricted to approved staff as determined by the SLT. Staff and pupils may have temporary access to photographs taken during a class session, but these will be transferred/deleted promptly. Parents/carers should note that there may be some children who are at risk and must not have their image put online and others who do not want their image online. For these reasons parents/carers must follow the school’s Acceptable Use Agreement and refrain from taking or posting online photographs of any member of the school community, other than their own child/ren. Staff and other professionals working with pupils, must only use school equipment to record images of pupils whether on or off site. See also GDPR. Permission to use images of all staff who work at the school is sought on induction and a written record is located in the personnel file. The school allows staff, including temporary staff, and visitors to use personal mobile phones and devices only in designated areas and never in the presence of pupils. Parents/carers may only use personal mobile phones and devices in designated areas unless otherwise informed, e.g. for specific events and activities. Under no circumstance should images be taken at any time on school premises or on off-site school events and activities of anyone other than their own child, unless there is a pre-specified permission from a senior member of staff. Pupils are allowed to bring personal mobile devices/phones to school but must not use them within school time or on the school premises. Under no circumstance should pupils use their personal mobile devices/phones to take images of any other pupil unless they and their parents have given agreement in advance or any member of staff. Phones are to be switched off and left in the child’s school bag. The school is not responsible for the loss, damage or theft of any personal mobile device that is brought into school. Users bringing personal devices into school must ensure there is no inappropriate or illegal content on the device. New personal technological devices may offer opportunities for teaching and learning. However, the school must consider educational benefit and gauge the risk before use in school is allowed. Parents/carers, pupils and staff should not assume that new technological devices will be allowed in school and should check with the SLT before they are brought into school. There may be occasions in school when either a pupil or an adult receives an offensive, abusive or inappropriate message or accidentally accesses upsetting or abusive material. When such a situation occurs the pupil or adult must report the incident immediately to the first available member of staff, the DSL/DDSL or the headteacher. Where such an incident may lead to significant harm, safeguarding procedures should be followed. The school takes the reporting of such incidents seriously and where judged necessary, the DSL will refer details to social care or the police.

Through LARA, any school documents accessed on a personal device are never actually on the computer being used, they remain on the school server. When the user logs-out of ▇▇▇▇, there are no copies left on their own device All breaches of prohibited behaviours detailed above will be investigated, where appropriate, in liaison with the police. The school recognises that in certain planned curricular activities, access to controversial and/or offensive online content may be beneficial for educational use. In such circumstances, there is an expectation that access is pre-planned, risk assessed and recorded, and permission given by the HeadteacherSLT. Photographs and videos provide valuable evidence of pupils’ achievement and progress in a variety of contexts and can be used to celebrate the work of the school. In line with GDPR they are used only with the written consent of parents/carers which is secured in the first instance on a child’s entry to the school. Records are kept on file and consent can be changed by parents/carers at any time. (See GDPR policy for greater clarification). Photographs and images of pupils are only stored on the school’s agreed secure networks which include some cloud based services. Rights of access to stored images are restricted to approved staff as determined by the SLT. Staff and pupils may have temporary access to photographs taken during a class session, but these will be transferred/deleted promptly. Parents/carers should note that there may be some children who are at risk and must not have their image put online and others who do not want their image online. For these reasons parents/carers must follow the school’s Acceptable Use Agreement and refrain from taking or posting online photographs of any member of the school community, other than their own child/ren. Staff and other professionals working with pupils, must only use school equipment to record images of pupils whether on or off site. See also GDPR. Permission to use images of all staff who work at the school is sought on induction and a written record is located in the personnel file. The school allows staff, including temporary staff, and visitors to use personal mobile phones and devices only in designated areas and never in the presence of pupils. Parents/carers may only use personal mobile phones and devices in designated areas unless otherwise informed, e.g. for specific events and activities. Under no circumstance should images be taken at any time on school premises or on off-site school events and activities of anyone other than their own child, unless there is a pre-specified permission from a senior member of staff. Users bringing personal devices into school must ensure there is no inappropriate or illegal content on the device. New personal technological devices may offer opportunities for teaching and learning. However, the school must consider educational benefit and gauge the risk before use in school is allowed. Parents/carers, pupils and staff should not assume that new technological devices will be allowed in school and should check with the SLT before they are brought into school. There may be occasions in school when either a pupil or an adult receives an offensive, abusive or inappropriate message or accidentally accesses upsetting or abusive material. When such a situation occurs the pupil or adult must report the incident immediately to the first available member of staff, the DSL/DDSL or the headteacher. Where such an incident may lead to significant harm, safeguarding procedures should be followed. The school takes the reporting of such incidents seriously and where judged necessary, the DSL will refer details to social care or the police.
