📱 Important Update: Changes to Our Mobile Phone Policy

Dear Parents and Carers,

From Monday 24 August 2026, Niland School will be changing our mobile phone policy from “off and away” to phones stored in the office or a locker.

This change follows a number of incidents related to mobile phone use at school. Our goal is to create a mobile phone-free school environment that supports student learning, engagement, safety and wellbeing.

📱 What students need to know

Students may continue to use their phones on the way to and from school.

Once students arrive at school, their phones must be stored for the school day in one of the following locations:

🔹 A locker in the front office foyer
🔹The phone safe with charger inside the front office

Students will not have access to their personal mobile phones during the school day.

🚨 Staying connected in an emergency

We understand that families may need to contact their children when necessary.

For emergencies or to support students with health or wellbeing needs, school mobile phones are available for students to use on request through their teacher.

Making our school a mobile phone-free space helps improve learning and engagement, while ensuring students can access a phone when it is genuinely needed.

💬 Questions, concerns or feedback?

We welcome communication from parents and carers. Please contact the school if you have any questions, concerns or feedback about our mobile phone policy. We are happy to discuss the changes and clarify how the new arrangements will work.

📧 Email: [email protected]
📞Phone: 9628 6885

Thank you for your support as we make this change and work together to provide a safe, supportive and focused learning environment for all students.

Our school is implementing My Say My Way (MSMW) this term as part of our student voice initiative. MSMW is an innovative digital application that has been designed with in-built accessibility features to support students with disability to have a voice in shaping their education. For more information, please see the MSMW website - https://education.nsw.gov.au/about-us/education-data-and-research/my-say-my-way .


Parents and carers are also invited to complete a separate survey to provide their perspectives on the wellbeing and educational experience of their child/ren in a specialist setting.

The Parent Carer Insight survey is now open and should take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete. Please spend some time to answer these questions as your insights will help your school better understand and respond to your child’s needs creating a more inclusive and supportive learning environment.

If you have more than one child at this school, please complete a new survey for each of your children as their needs may be different.
