Mobile Phones Use in School
We have had an issue where a number of students were found to be 'messaging' on phones during a class. The phones were confiscated as this is inappropriate use of mobile devices in school.
Mobile devices can be used:
- In Social areas at break/lunch
- In classes if the teacher gives permission and they are used to support learning
Mobile devices cannot be used
- In classrooms unless directed by the teacher
- In corridors when moving around school to and from classes
- To take photographs or videos unless permission has been given by a teacher
If you use your mobile device inappropriately it will be confiscated by the teacher and held for the remainder of the period; or held at the office until the end of the morning/day. Parents may also be contacted.
