[Year 12 IPM] Use of CCTV in schools

[Mark Kelly]

An interesting announcement for both info system managers 
using/considering CCTV, and for privacy discussion...

Circular 371/2005 - Use of Closed Circuit Television Surveillance in Schools

For all principals, schools, and school council presidents.

Any new or additional CCTV system installed in a school should comply 
with both legislative and Department requirements.  Policies and 
procedures have been established to ensure that any school planning to 
install CCTV surveillance meets these requirements.  Schools that have 
not previously sought approval for CCTV systems, should contact 
Emergency & Security Management immediately at esm at edumail.vic.gov.au 
and seek retroactive approval.
