Cell Phone Policy

 

Dear Parent / Guardian,

 

Within recent times there has been an increase in the inappropriate use of cellular phones at the school. These include: photography of students of the opposite sex, inappropriate material on cellular phones, phone thefts, destruction of phones by other students, and other similar incidences. These activities have caused great disturbances to the context and conduct of classroom teaching, to parents of affected students, to the administration of the office of the principal and to the moral and ethical policies of the institution.

 

In accordance with the National Schools’ Code of Conduct guidelines for cellular phone use, we have decided to cease the use of camera cellular phones on the school’s compound with effect from the new school’s term commencing 11th April 2016, and to allow ONLY the use of non-camera phones. The institution recognizes the importance of students having to communicate with parents or their drivers. This policy will reduce the inappropriate use of camera phones on the school’s compound.

 

Please be guided by the following which are in accordance with the National Schools’ Code of Conduct concerning use of mobile hand-held electronic communicated devices (cellular telephones):

 

1. Security for cell phones is the responsibility of the adults and students bringing them on the school’s compound and/or to a school-related activity. Parents and guardians wishing to allow their charges (students) to carry cell phones to school or a school-related activity (on or off the school compound), must understand that such devices are the responsibility of their charges while at school or at school-related activities.

 

 

2. Phones must be switched off upon entering the school’s compound and stored in the students’ school bags. The phone should not be switched on during regular school hours.

​

3. In the event of an emergency, parents will be contacted by school officials.

​

4. Parents wishing to contact their child/ward must contact the school at 662-4120.

Parent/Guardians

 

It is important to note that in the event that students disobey the school rules with respect to bringing camera phones at school, the following action would be taken:

 

• In-house suspension of students

• Withdrawal of privileges

• Parents would be immediately informed and will be asked to collect device at the end of school’s regular hours
