Discussing HKIS on Social Media
Social media is a great way to share positive news and events about HKIS, as well as to communicate factual information about policies and school life with others in our community. In line with the HKIS Community Partnership and Communication Guidelines in our school policies, all communications on such channels must assume good intent, be constructive, and communicate care, respect for others and sensitivity for diversity.
We would also like to emphasise that specific student issues are best discussed privately with school representatives, not on group chats (e.g. WhatsApp, WeChat, mass emails) or public platforms (e.g.: closed or public groups or pages on Facebook, Twitter).
Neither should members of our community lobby for changes in policy or procedure on these platforms. Please refer to the Sequence of Communication Channels in the HKIS Community Partnership and Communication Guidelines for the appropriate procedures on how to address concerns at the school.
Posting photos and stories on social media accounts are a wonderful way to share life at HKIS with friends and family. For the safety and privacy of our students, please be reminded that photos taken on campus should not be shared on any public profiles or media outlets without the consent of the school. Please refer to HKIS’s Social Media Policy (Policy 3180, available on DragonNet) for more details.
