HANDPHONE POLICY
According to GIIS-ICT policy 2018 (Section 11.5.2), the school prohibits the possession of mobile
phones by the students in class rooms. Violation of this act will result in the seizure of the mobile
phones. The seized phones will be kept in the admin office, and will only be returned to the parents
upon signing a declaration form. Repeated violation of the act (more than one time) will end up in
taking disciplinary action against the student.
The sub clauses of the section 11.5.2 are:
(A) In general, students should not bring valuable items to school, as they can be easily lost or
stolen. Parents need to be aware that mobile phones are brought to school entirely at the
student's risk and the school accepts no responsibility for replacing lost, stolen or damaged
mobile phones.
(B) If a student uses a mobile phone in the school premises to take photographs or video footage
of any kind, it will be regarded as a serious offence and appropriate disciplinary action will be
taken. Images/videos of other students or staff taken will be removed by the student in the
presence of their parent/guardian.
(C) Parents are reminded that in cases of emergency the school office remains a vital and
appropriate point of contact. Contact numbers during school hours: 03-78463588/ 019 319
2388 / 019 370 2388. After school hours: 019 2388 242.
Annexure: Pursuant to sub clause (A) of section 11.5.2:
GIIS will rent out security boxes and pad locks to students at RM 50.00 per month. The rent
for the security box is to be paid on a termly basis.
Only registered students are to use the security boxes. Sharing/sub-letting strictly prohibited.
Students are to keep the keys safely. If the keys are lost, they can get duplicate keys for a small
