CEDoW Social Media Policy
The Catholic Education Diocese of Wollongong (CEDoW) has released a Social Media Policy and Social Media Statement that include Social Media Standards when using social media in relation to CEDoW or any of its school communities.
This Policy has been developed to support CEDOW, schools and staff to minimise the reputational risk of individuals, schools and/or CEDOW. It also ensures that schools meet their compliance requirements with the New South Wales Education Standards Authority (NESA) and the Australian Education Act 2013 (Cth).
Further information and a link to the new Policy can be found in the flyer below under Parents News.
More information on this Policy will be included in next week's Newsletter.
