Online Safety Reminders for Pupils using Google Classroom:

  1. Please use an avatar for your profile image and not a real image.
  2. No personal information should be uploaded. This includes images of yourself.
  3. If uploading photographs of work please make sure no other personal information is on the photograph.
  4. Google Classroom is to be used to communicate with the teacher on activities they have set.
  5. The stream is not to be used for any personal thoughts, discussions or chats.
  6. Parents need to use the school email addresses provided to communicate to the teacher and not to use your Google Classroom account.
  7. We are kind and respectful at all times, leaving only positive comments.
  8. It really isn’t important how many classmates comment or don’t comment on something you upload. It’s about taking part in the activities set.
  9. You can ask a question in Google Classroom for the teacher to answer when they are available.
  10. Your account can be suspended by a teacher if you don’t use Google Classroom appropriately.
