THE POLICY
Eynesbury provides students with access to computing, internet and email facilities for study related purposes only.
We take seriously our duty of care to limit access to inappropriate materials and to restrict inappropriate use of resources. We monitor and supervise student use of resources, filter as the Director, Information Systems, deems appropriate and reserve the right to access any student files without notification. It follows that student use of the Eynesbury network is neither private nor confidential.
Each student will be provided with an individual login, a password of his or her own choosing, an email address and a printing and an internet usage credit. They are for the sole use of that student and may not be transferred to or used by any other student.
Please note carefully that continued access to Eynesbury’s information and communication resources is conditional on students not:
We reserve the right to remove a student’s access to ICTs for inappropriate use. Penalties may include the disabling of login accounts, loss of Internet and email access, suspension and even expulsion.
Any illegal activities will be reported to the appropriate authorities.
You are required to use the network in accordance with the terms of the Appropriate Use Policy.
The school is wireless networked so you are welcome to use your laptop to access internet, email and your personal files.
