Students' use of mobile phones in school support session

The new Students' Use of Mobile Phones Policy is being implemented in ALL NSW public schools from Term 4 this year, actioning a key commitment from the incoming government. 

The Digital Learning team will be hosting a series of drop in sessions to provide schools with support for the successful implementation of the new policy, or guide schools to any adjustments that may need to be made to their existing school procedure. The team will walk attendees through the implementation resources that have been created. This includes checklists, newsletter content, draft parent communications, school procedures documents, and templates for managing exemptions. In addition, we will share some great examples of best practice from schools who have already successfully implemented a ban.
