What's A Policy?
Getting Started
- A policy is a written document that tells us how we are expected to act in different situations.
- Schools use policies in order to help keep us learning, safe, happy and healthy.
- Governments, companies and other organisations use policies for many of the same reasons.

Our IT Policy
ICHK Secondary
- In 2019 ICHK Secondary introduced a new IT policy to help us all use computers and the Internet more sensibly and safely.
- You will probably already have signed our IT Acceptable Use Policy Agreement, and so should be familiar with the policy.
- However, it is always worth reviewing the policy, which you should now do using the graphic below (its far more fun than reading the full text of the policy):
- Click on the image below to load a larger version, with easier-to-read text.
- Make sure you have spent some time reading and thinking about the text.

Your Thoughts
Evidence
- In order to show what you have learned here you will produce a 2-minute video monologue, in which you will record yourself speaking to the camera on your computer.
- The aim is not to produce a perfect, scripted video, but to just talk as if you were chatting with your teacher.
- You may want to talk about some of the following:
- What is a policy?
- Why does ICHK Secondary have an IT policy?
- What are some important rules and guidelines in the policy?
- Tell a story about a time you broke the policy, and what went wrong for you.
- Try to record your video in a single take: don't worry if you make a mistake, just keep talking.
