Social media offers schools the opportunity to share information and celebrate achievements relating to their school community. It allows schools to broadcast news about the school to a wide group of followers which can include pupils, parents, local parishes, external partners and other interested parties.
Responsible use of social media allows schools to demonstrate its safe use to students.
