While there is not a complete ban on mobile phones, there are strict guidelines regarding mobile phones in our school.
- If a pupil needs to have a mobile phone at school with him, then his parents must sign the official consent form. If a pupil is found in possession of a phone, without a consent slip having been signed by his parent/guardian, it will be confiscated.
- Under no circumstances can a pupil have a mobile phone switched on during the school day (either in the building or while on the yard).
- Pupils in possession of an ‘approved’ phone must keep it concealed during the school day.
- A pupil may switch on a phone after school, while in the school grounds, for the purpose of communication. However, they must not use it at this time for playing games or displaying/taking images. Again, it should be kept concealed while not being used for communication.
- Any breach of the above guidelines will result in the confiscation of the phone for a period of one week, after which time, his parent/guardian will be asked to collect the phone from the school.
- The school will take no responsibility for any phone which is lost, damaged or stolen from a pupil while on the school premises.
