– It is good that this is going on the agenda. I am amazed of the extent. I think we should be more careful with camera surveillance in general in Norwegian society, but we should be particularly careful to children and youth, says SV leader Audun Lysbakken.
Saturday could Daily document how tens of thousands of Norwegian children and young people at risk of being subjected to surveillance at the school, either during school hours or on culture – and sports activities on the school site in the evening.
Lysbakken emphasizes that he will not fix any index finger against enkeltrektorer who have taken the decision to set up the cameras, then this certainly is done with the best intentions.
– But when we see the sum of this I mean it is a political responsibility to clean up and get us on track. It is clear that there is not some form of political control. Monitoring is a restrictive thing that we can not let it spread without that we have a proper debate about when it should be okay, says SV leader.

Schools and Oslo S
In the Norwegian newspaper Dagsavisen on Saturday was the Inspectorate is very worried. They believes camera surveillance is a as restrictive measures that it takes very much to that it is allowed. It shall in that case stand if the students or teachers ‘ safety.
But justispolitisk the spokesperson of the progress party, Ulf Leirstein, says that although the progress party are strong defenders of privacy, it should be okay to monitor a school, as long as it is not placed cameras inside the classrooms.
– the Schools are monitored first after school, and I think that this must be deemed to be public areas equivalent to Oslo S. When is monitoring fine. It is voluntary to seek out a public area. It is not voluntary to be in a classroom and get teaching. So it seemed I may be a straightforward dividing line, type Leirstein in an SMS to Daily, and adds that the schools should be a general rule that cameras should not be used.

the Right is sceptical about
– Nevertheless, we must realize that there is a need for this type of surveillance of public areas and public buildings, including schools, writes Leirstein.
like Lysbakken is skolepolitisk spokesperson in the Right, Henrik Asheim, are very skeptical that so many children and young people risk to be exposed for monitoring.
– I mean camera surveillance in general are problematic. One should always be careful, but for students with a mandatory, one should be extra careful not to resort to monitoring. Few of us would have accepted it at his workplace, ” says Asheim.
He believes that if there are schools that do not follow the laws and rules on the monitoring to the letter, it is very problematic. At the same time, he sees the argument from the Norwegian principals, we want to avoid vandalism and crime on the school site.
– We need to find a balance. But if we stretch the elastic for children and youth, and we see that they are becoming more and more subjected to monitoring in order to defend something else, I believe we should examine it. I hope the parents are involved, and that the teachers are to agree before the decision is taken, ” says Asheim.

Will not prohibit monitoring
In the Norwegian newspaper Dagsavisen over the weekend took the Liberal Abid Raja argued for totalforby the use of surveillance cameras in the school. The left believes that such a restrictive measures in the students ‘everyday lives can have major consequences for pupils’ behaviour and attitudes to surveillance in general.
But the proposal it appears that the Left stands alone.
I am well on the way to agree in the reasoning, but I do not agree that we should prohibit the use of cameras in schools. There are good examples of that it is necessary. For example, after school, at a school with a lot of vandalism. Then, it affects only those who do something wrong that usually do not go to school, ” says skolepolitisk Asheim.
not Lysbakken will anticipate some support to the Left.
– We’ll see when the proposal comes. I will not exclude that the part of the principals may have good reasons for this. We should consider the proposal with an open mind when it comes. Now, first the government come out and relate to this, and makes sure that there are guidelines that are followed. They need to show that it is not necessary with a ban, he says.
education ms. Torbjørn Røe Isaksen has not wanted to comment on the sublime through framing in the school, but is a known supporter of a strong policy, and has previously expressed scepticism towards the increased monitoring.
