Student Code of Conduct
Student Code of Conduct
Students are not permitted to record, transmit or distribute, any synchronous or asynchronous instruction in any form distributed from the College without permission, including but not limited to audio, video or images. Students must maintain the security of their device and ensure that no other individuals or parties access the device to perform these functions.
Students, where possible, will message the staff member using the POSTS, chat or email, at the start of each timetabled lesson. In group meetings, students must make sure that at least one other student is present. (The other attendees must be visible on the Teams Screen at all times).
Students are only permitted to join a teacher-initiated online group meeting for live synchronous teaching, when there is one other student present.
In the event that a student notices that there are no other students in a group meeting, they must inform the staff member that this is the case. They must then leave the online meeting.
Students may only communicate via the Post Section, chat or email with the teacher or other students, about educational matters using appropriate and respectful language.
Students are expected to comply with the BCC Student Digital Policy.
Student engagement and communication will be expected to meet the same high standards as face to face interactions would at school. This includes being polite and respectful to peers and Staff Members during an online meeting.
Students are not to use Teams to video or audio call other students. There are many private social media services (Facetime etc.) for that purpose. Student interactions in Teams – via text, audio or video – are logged and monitored by Staff Members.
Any students that are in breach of any of the above will be contacted by their teacher to discuss possible consequences and parents will be notified.
