School Copyright Policy
All copyright rights will be respected by the school, including:
• the rights of owners of third-party material used in teaching,
• the rights of students in all material they create in and for school, and
• the rights of teachers in material they created before and during their employment at the school.
The school shall adhere to all aspects of UK copyright law, including those pertaining to educational and library purposes.
When the school's use of copyright material exceeds what is allowed under the Act, the school will buy appropriate copyright licenses and adhere to the conditions of these licenses.
While the school recognizes that it cannot monitor all of its students' behaviour, it will make an effort to teach students about copyright issues such as reference, allowed copying, and the use of electronic materials and digital music.
To ensure compliance with this policy, the school will implement copyright processes inside the school, including staff training and education, as well as the appointment of a board of trustees member and staff member responsible for copyright.
