At the start of P6 – all parents receive information about their child’s ipad and the option for them to bring it home. Once parents have reviewed this information, if they want to give permission for their child to bring their iPad home, they complete an online form\u00a0 to confirm agreement with the terms of them doing so. Our school organises this in line with Fife Council’s Transforming Project. Parents can find out more online.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is a very safe device and is highly controllable by parents as well as by staff. The child can only download devices approved for educational use and there is no access to social media through their school device. This being said, we respect that some parents prefer their child to keep the ipad in school.<\/p>\r\n If parents don’t wish their child to bring their iPad home, they do not need to complete the form – the child’s iPad will remain in school and will be charged here.<\/p>\r\n If a parent decides at a later point that they do want their child to bring the device home, they can contact the office at burntislandps.enquiries@fife.gov.uk and we will re-open the form.<\/p>\r\n If a parents completes the form but later decides that they no longer want their child to bring the ipad home, they can contact the office to withdraw consent. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n The form is sent directly to parents at the start of P6.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At the start of P6 – all parents receive information about their child’s ipad and the option for them to bring it home.
