Pupils' Images on the Website


Our website is all about our school and (our) school is all about children. When we set up the website we wanted the site to be 'For the Children and By the Children'. We think that it is both exciting and memorable for children to see themselves and their classmates on the school website and that such a platform is very valuable for the children. However we are very aware of issues of safety and security surrounding school websites. To this end we have consulted a number of bodies and follow guidelines laid down by the Department for Education & Skills (as well as other organisations). These recommend that where children are named they are not shown in an accompanying photograph and where they are photographed, they are not named. Guidelines also recommend that surnames and other 'identifying information' is not used and that judgement is exercised when considering clothing & attire. All parents in the school have had a consent form and only the children whose parents had no objections are pictured on this site.

If you are concerned about your childs photograph being included on this website please contact the school as soon as possible.
