Google Workspace is the SFS digital school environment. The system has been used in schooling for several years, both domestically and abroad. It has many learning apps, including Google Classroom, where teachers create digital classrooms for students.

The system has undergone a risk assessment and a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) in partnership with the Department of Education and Youth (SFS), the Education Innovation Center and the Reykjavik Privacy Commissioner. Schools are only allowed to use the software in the central installation of SFS and the Department of Information Technology (UTR). Each school enters into a processor agreement with the company. All data is stored within Europe.

Our reality suddenly changed with Covid. Schoolwork in the city was based on a multi-pronged mix of placement, homework and learning through electronic media. Learning with the support of a network is not about transferring the traditional school environment into the electronic environment.

The Learning Supported by Network page was created with the aim of pointing out a range of accessible ways and means that support communication and information-sharing between schools and homes, while ensuring children as soon as they are safe and supportive of routine and learning.

Cybersecurity & Privacy

Software must be assessed for risks before using it in school and recreation.
The following questions need to be answered: What data is processed? Where is the data stored? Can it be deleted? Are any advertisements related to the usage?

Job site managers are responsible for informing parents about what technologies are being used and how they are being integrated into the school setting.

 

System Administrators

Most of the City's primary schools have system administrators who can help staff solve problems. UTR works closely with these system administrators and supports their day-to-day work.

Do you work for the City and need help?

If you are unable to reach the system administrator at your facility:

Send a request to utr@reykjavik.is

When emailing a request to UTR, it's important to include the phone number and facility in question.
