What time can you use a mobile phone in school?

Mobile phones, or other audio/visual electronic devices and games etc. may not be used between 8.45 a.m. and 4.00 p.m. unless specifically requested by the class teacher. Mobile phones and related devices cause loss of concentration, disruption and the possibility of cheating in tests / examinations. Boarders may not bring these items to Prep (6.30 – 9.00 p.m.) or Day pupils (4.15 – 6.00 p.m.) to supervised study without teacher permission. Under no circumstances must a phone be brought to any examination centre. Boarding houses have regulations for mobile phone access also. Use of a mobile phone / device during these times will result in a sanction.

Why do we expect all pupils to have the full set of uniform items set out on the relevant list?

We expect all pupils to have the full set of uniform items set out on the relevant list so that they may change frequently in the interests of hygiene.

Can boarders call outside school?

Parents are reminded that, unless there is an emergency, boarders are only allowed telephone calls outside class, meal and study times. Urgent messages can be relayed to pupils from the school office during the day by calling (023) 8841713 or email office@bgsmail.ie
