Students in Yr 7-11 must keep mobile phones securely locked within a school-issued pouch throughout the school day.

The pouch remains in the student's possession, in their bag, for the whole day and is unlocked using a magnetic base at the end of the school day as students leave site.

It is the student’s responsibility to ensure their phone remains safely stored inside their locked pouch at all times during the school day.

The pouch is school property and must be treated with care and respect. Each student will have their first pouch purchased by the school but in the event that a pouch is broken or lost, a new pouch must be purchased by parents/carers for the cost of £8.50.
