TORO Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Dear all, In light of the dreadful news in the media now, has anyone got a photograph policy that they would want to share please. Thanks Toro Quote
Upsy Daisy Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Sorry TORO can't help as I don't have one. I can't imagine that writing one would help me much either as I am working on my own as a childminder. Quote
Guest Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 We have a 'Code of conduct' that includes not using personal cameras etc. Sorry, it is on the work computer Gruffalo2 Quote
blondie Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 we get each parent to sign a letter consenting to photographs it says that these are only used within the group and for childrens special books etc and group photographs taken at end of year. cant find copy of letter but will look later Quote
Inge Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 we have one as part of our registration form which was in the resources but seems to have been 'lost' in the reorganisation of the area.. it was an up to date one for EYFS.. anyway in it we had who would take photos where how they would be taken..eg pre-school camera only who would have access to them and process them where and how they would be stored ie pre-school pc, or whose, cd, memory stick or how? how long for eg 1 year after child leaves what they would be used for files, display, evidence for Ofsted and accreditation file. used in other children files when groups of children additional permission for use on photo cd at tend of year for parents... which was an extra permission we asked for .. we sold them for funds.. no personal cameras or phone would be used except preschool phone.. and managers phone in exceptional circumstances if appropriate... ( dead pre-school one!! no one charged it!!) and I think there was more but cannot remember of hand.. Inge Quote
Guest Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 We have a consent form that we do when they join, it ask for permission to use photographs for pubilicity etc as we are a charity as well as for use in the setting - profiles and displays etc. Its very basic. Quote
lynned55 Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 We have a consent form for the taking of, use of and storage of both photo and video images. We dont have a photographic policy and to be honest as you need parental consent for taking and using photos then I dont really see the point in a policy. Quote
Guest Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Hope this is useful to you, its a pretty much copy of the use of imagery policy that our local primary school has. I have also included the letter/permission slip which we sent out to parents with the policy. Zoe. use_of_imagery_policy.doc Quote
