You may have read in the media that there is currently a focus on mobile phones and whether pupils should have access to these in school. 

Read the full guidance here: DfE mobile phones in school.

Our procedures are unchanged, if parents provide pupils with a mobile phone, the phone should be handed in to the class teacher at the start of the school day, it will be handed back at the end of the day. Pupils are not allowed to use or access their phones during the school day, this includes during childcare or clubs.

For more guidance on how to talk to your child about heir mobile phone use have a look at this useful guide from the UK safer internet centre:
