About the Webinar

Understanding the responsibility of schools towards their students onsite during school hours is one thing. However, increasingly disputes are arising involving the conduct of students offsite and outside school hours, often involving social media, technology and online bullying. This session explores the legal issues impacting schools including:

  • The line of delineation between home and school, school responsibility and parental responsibility
  • Examples of anti-social behaviour (including online bullying, vaping and use of e-scooters) experienced by schools and how different schools have attempted to address these
  • What role do, or should, schools play in educating, preventing and managing anti-social or online behaviour of its students outside school hours?
  • The extent to which policies or enrolment contracts could play a role in delineating responsibilities for behaviour outside school gates
  • Case studies
