Loirston School is committed to being a school of responsible internet users. We are using an online tool to help us on this journey. It is called 360 degree safe and is recommended by Aberdeen City Council. We feel that this is very important in view of the ever changing world of technology that our young people live in so that we can help them to keep themselves safe and be mindful of others in their use of social media and mobile phones.
To help us achieve this goal we have identified the priorities and set up a committee of pupils. This group of pupils will be called the ISRU (Internet Safety and Responsible Use) Team. They will start by looking at rules and sanctions for the use of mobile phones in school.We will be introducing the team to the school at assembly in the next few weeks. The plan is that they will promote the message of responsible use to the whole school community and that other pupils can go to them if they are worried about anything. We will let you know about any developments in the next few weeks.
We are sure that you will support us in the journey towards responsible use of the internet both in school and at home. Please feel free to contact us if you have any queries.
