Digital Learning

Garfield Primary School recognizes the importance of using a variety of technological devices* in preparing children for the world around them and believes they are a vital part of the curriculum. We want children to be confident and safe when using this technology. We believe that explicitly teaching students about safe and responsible online behaviours is essential, and is best taught in partnership with parents/guardians.
* Technological devices include all PCs, laptops, Ipads, Iphones, DSs, cameras etc.
 
At Garfield we focus on three main areas:
​

I AM eSAFE (Being safe when communicating online, keeping passwords private and informing a teacher if anything makes me feel worried or uncomfortable)
 
I AM eRESPECTFUL (Looking after equipment, making sure sent messages are respectful, not copying, downloading, installing apps or putting software on any technological devices)
 
I AM AN eLEARNER (When using the Internet, only search for information as directed, only read my own messages, only submit my own work, leaving all technological devices at home unless given permission)
