Dear Parent,
Computers in our school are linked to the
internet via Broadband allowing internet use in the classroom. A filtering
system put in place on behalf of the Department of Education and Science blocks
unacceptable sites.
Our school policy is that;
·
Computers
and the internet are used only for educational purposes.
·
Pupils
may only be allowed access to the internet under supervision by a staff member.
·
Personal
information such phone numbers, addresses names will not be given out online.
·
Children
will be encouraged to immediately tell a supervising adult if they see any
material which has words or pictures that upset them.
The use of computer facilities including
internet access is an essential part of learning as required by the National
curriculum.
If you do not wish
your child to avail of these facilities please inform the school in writing or
by calling to the school secretary who will record your wishes.
