Privacy Policy
It is the school’s first duty to ensure that every child in their care is safe and therefore that no individual child could be identified or contacted by visitors to the school’s website. A similar responsibility also applies to school staff and to the general security of school premises. The following rules will be adopted by everyone involved in preparing the materials for the school website:
Photographs of pupils will only be of general groups, in full clothing, preferably at a distance or otherwise not easily identified- e.g. with face averted. Individual photos will not be used.
No names or other identifying information will be attached to photographs.
The content of pictures should be considered for good taste and the dignity of people in the pictures.
Pupil’s work displayed online will be identified only by class - e.g. “painting/writing by a P3 pupil” and will not contain information, such as family names, which might identify that pupil or family members.
Any incident of an image considered by a pupil, staff member or parent to have been inappropriate to the website or these guidelines should be reported to the head teacher. The person reporting may chose to do so anonymously, but must give reasons why they feel the images is not appropriate.
Teacher’s pages must not contain: CVs and personal messages; non-job related personal information; personal opinions about school policy or related controversial issues; personal contact details.
School board and PTA pages should not contain personal contact details of members.
Pupil or class pages are generally created as class assignments. However, they must nevertheless be checked to ensure that they do not contain personal contact information about the student, including email addresses.
Pupil or class pages must be reviewed by the teacher prior to posting or modification.
Pupil or class pages must not include links to their own or other pupils’ personal web sites containing personal contact information or materials and contents contrary to the School's Acceptable Use Policy or these guidelines.
School term dates and times - this is already public information on the city council’s website.
Events and trips. General information only. An email link will be provided for parents to request details to be sent home with their child, on paper.
