He said he hadn't set one up for everyone yet ect but that it was going to be used to teach them internet safety and to send work to them and them to send it back.

I call bull**** on thatreason.I think the school and the teacher is way out of line. ALL students should be using a DET issued email account to use within school for that purpose. Not sure what state you are in, but they are legally bound to have you sign parental consent forms as well as the student signing consent forms basically saying that they will not use it incorrectly. The school DS1 goes to is also able to track every single email that is sent and received for the year 7 students to the point where they all had to get a talking to over some students sending improper emails to each other and the instigators had their computer access blocked for a period of time. A gmail account is absolutely unacceptable!
