Leaving A Positive Digital Footprint
At Westmorland, we know the importance of creating a positive digital footprint. We work towards creating a positive image of ourselves and school and model good practice and behaviours to children and parents.
Everything we do online builds a digital snapshot of us, whether that is a Facebook post, tweet, comment on a forum or blog or profile linked to another website. Your digital footprint is easily visible when you google your name – are you creating a good impression?
Below are suggestions and guidance to ensure this happens. However this list is not exhaustive.

Forums, profiles, social networking sites and the like
As a rule of thumb, remember that posting comments on social networking sites is just like writing on the staffroom wall! It is visible to lots of people and may be hard to get rid of!
Each employee has a responsibility to ensure that they behave in a way that does not bring the school into disrepute within the local community
Above all, remember do use social media and new technology. Use it in innovative ways, but be smart about how you use it and apply security settings appropriately.
