Clarification Health and Safety precautions in toilets
Tue Sep 13 03:23pmKia ora,
Thank you to those parents who have acknowledged our actions to ensure the health and safety of students using the school toilets.
Just a few clarifications, and my apology for not being explicit regarding the safe monitoring of the cameras.
1. The recorded data will only be referred to when inappropriate behaviour in the toilets is reported or suspected. Hence the date and time reference is part of the recorded data. We will not have someone monitoring the cameras throughout the day.
2. In the case of any inappropriate behaviour being reported, only School Counsellors, Principal, Property Manager and Executive Team will have access to view data and this will always be done in the company of another staff member.
3. For hygiene reasons these facilities are not and should not be used by students for changing. This point will be reinforced with teachers and students.
4. There are still two individual unisex toilets that can be accessed by students if they, for some reason, are still fearful about using our superloo toilet facilities.
I hope this clarifies any concerns anyone has. As a Board and staff the health and safety of your child, our students, is of paramount importance, hence the decision to take these safety measures.
