A Guide for Students and Teachers
The Rules of Mobile Phone use
• Although we are moving to an E-Planner system it is also useful to
note the rules the school has on using mobile phones in schools.
The school policy is as follows:
“Mobile phones are allowed in school…..Mobile phones may be used in lessons as an integral part of
the learning, however this is at the discretion of the teachers and in all other circumstances mobile
phones should be switched off so as not to cause disruption to lessons.”
• This means, When homework is given out you are allowed your
phone out, but NOT all the time(unless guided by your teacher)
• Failure to abide by the rules can mean confiscation
