Just curious about this. My 9 year old daughter has recently been given a 'Google Apps for education' account at school.A while ago I wrote about Google services not being available to under 13year olds. This is googles policy which goes as far as including gmail, google drive, youtube, google+ etc ...Now I found it odd that she came home the other day from school and has been given a google account.As a google docs user myself I have no issues with this and I am actually very supportive of them using google drive for homework etc .. I am however not happy that she gets a google+ account. She can have one when she turns 13. Same for facebook.Anybody know what the rules in NZ are around this. Is there a national policy that her school needs to abide by? Is her school breaking any rules by providing her with a google plus account (She is 9)I have not contacted the school about this as yet. Don't really want to but just curious as to what others think about it.
