Mackie Hill have their own page on Twitter. TWITTER CONSENT FORM 2015- 2016 Mackie Hill have their own page on Twitter. This is used on school trips and residential visits so teachers can take photographs of children and post them to our page for parents to see what they have been doing that day. It is also helpful for any delays in estimated times of arrival to keep parents informed of any traffic delays. The feedback from parent users has remained universally positive and we hope to continue this in the future. Obviously, however positive the use of Twitter can be, we must ensure that children’s safety is paramount at all times. To do this we have chosen the highest security protocols on the system. This means that none of the content can be viewed or accessed by anyone unless they are an approved follower of the Mackie Hill Twitter account. The account administrator has control of which followers are approved and can delete their permission should the need arise. Our policy for approving followers requires parents to supply their Twitter name, the email they used to set up their Twitter account and to return this letter to school to say that you understand the terms. I hope the security information has not scared you away from following our Twitter account. The positive applications of Twitter for you and the school far outweigh any possible risks and we hope that you will join as an approved follower.
