Linewise and Digital Safety

Online Safety

Bayfield School is committed to providing a digital and online environment that is physically and emotionally safe, inclusive, and free from racism, discrimination, and bullying (Education and Training Act 2020 and Health and Safety at Work Act 2015). We recognise the vital role of digital technology in learning and how it impacts student wellbeing, so we take all reasonably practicable steps to ensure its safe and responsible use. Our strategies aim to prevent digital incidents and maintain student wellbeing and safety both at and outside the school. 

• Our school uses Netsafe and Linewize to filter and monitor technology use on our school network. 

• Children and families sign our Digital Citizenship Agreement annually.

• We have clear procedures surrounding cyberbullying and inappropriate content and take these seriously.
