1. BACKGROUND1.1 This acceptable use policy ("AUP") describes acceptable use of the London Grid forLearning ("LGfL") by the organisation ("Connecting Organisation"), whichconnects to the LGfL for the purpose of providing educational, governmental andother related services to students ("Users").1.2 Use of the Internet and LGfL mandated services, such as the electronic mail service,are primarily intended for educational and government purposes only. [The LGfLmay not be used for commercial or financial gain without obtaining our prior expresswritten approval from LGfL]1.3 We recommend that Internet use in educational establishments is driven by clearlearning intentions that are set in the context of well framed tasks.1.4 It is the responsibility of the Connecting Organisation to ensure that its employeesand all Users are required to follow all the conditions laid down in this AUP.1.5 Connecting Organisations must have in force an acceptable use policy whichemployees of the Connecting Organisation, and Users (and where a User is below theage of sixteen, the User's legal guardian) are fully aware of in order to regulate theuse of the Internet via the LGfL, and which seeks to enforce all of the conditionswhich are laid down in this AUP.2. ACCEPTABLE INTERNET USE GUIDELINES2.1 Use of the Internet outside of the scope of this AUP (as set out in paragraph 1.2)should be agreed [within the Connecting Organisation] and will be subject to thesame guidelines and policies as though the User is using the LGfL for the purposesset out in paragraph 1.2.2.2 Use of the Internet by Users must be supervised by an appropriate employee of theConnecting Organisation, and the Connecting Organisation must take steps tomonitor, and where appropriate, record this usage.2.3 The Connecting Organisation must ensure that access by Users who are under the ageof sixteen should always be in areas where screens are visible to the supervisingemployees of the Connecting Organisation.2.4 Connecting Organisations must ensure that Users are not given access to Newsgroupsor 'chat areas' unless using areas specifically designed for safe use and they aresupervised by an appropriately qualified employee of the Connecting Organisation.2.5 Connecting Organisations must ensure that Users do not give out personal detailsover the Internet except in circumstances (e.g. joint projects), which the ConnectingOrganisation has approved.
