ESF Technology Permission Declaration

Posted: August 30, 2024

At Discovery College we use a variety of forms of digital technology to support learning. The technology tools we use are an integral part of learning at DC, and they help us to ensure that every child can learn effectively. We select tools carefully based on considerations such as educational value, student safety, and data privacy, and work hard to integrate them effectively into the curriculum.

As a result of recent changes to data requirements, in order for your child/children to continue to use these digital technology tools within the curriculum we are required to seek your approval annually.

This declaration slip available on Ding VLE (accessed through ESF APP) will allow you to respond, and we ask that all parents do so within 7 days of receiving for each child in the family.
