Using images policy
Aim
of policy
To give clear guidance on the use of mobile phones in
the Nursery as well as how images will be used and stored.
Points
to consider
This policy is part of the centre’s wider
commitment to safeguarding the welfare of children
Castle
Daycare and Preschool aim to achieve this by:
One of the key ways that practitioners support
children's development and engage parents in children's learning is through
photographs that record their activities and achievements.
We will get parents’ permission to take photographs
of their child at the setting in sessions. Parents can withdraw this permission
at any time.
Only nursery cameras
will be used to take pictures of children, except in circumstances such as the
local paper taking pictures or other parents taking pictures during a party, in
these cases additional parental permission will be required.
The nursery cameras
will stay onsite except when on nursery outings.
All digital images
of the children will be stored on computers with passwords. If these images are
stored on memory sticks these sticks will be stored in a lockable cabinet.
Permission for
photographs to be used on the nursery website will be gained separately as will
permission for videos.
