Hello all!
I have a quick question.
there is an issue at my workplace, where educators are blurring the lines of professional boundaries on several levels. This is due in part to our outdated policies and procedures that seriously need updating and reviewing.
What i am looking for is reference in any current legislation relating specifically to staff and students using their personal mobile phones to photograph children for their own personal /use pleasure/storage.
I am facilitating a meeting with one of these staff members tomorrow and would love to read up on what the law has to say.
no doubt I will spend hours tonight trying to sift through the reams of information.
can anybody help?
fefe?
cathiek?
