Mobile Phone Policy Update

As you may be aware, earlier this year the Minister for Education introduced a state wide mobile phone ban from 2020. As one of the schools that already had a similar ban in place, our school council were asked to modify our existing policy to make it comply with the Department of Education and Training policy. One of the DET policy requirements is that mobile phones, if taken to school remain in locked storage and not in the students possession. Please take the time to familiarise yourself with the changes to the policy which take into effect from the beginning of 2020.
