Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

'Bring your own device' (BYOD) refers to students bringing a personally owned device to school for the purpose of learning. A personally owned device is any laptop-style technology device brought into the school and is owned by a student or the student’s family.

This device must be a laptop-style device such as a Windows, Mac or Chromebook and must be able to connect to the school WiFi and have specific software installed. The level of device will be determined by you and your family's budget and the subjects you choose.

Senior students who do CAPA, IT, or TAS subjects may need higher spec Windows or Mac devices to ensure that the specific software required for those subjects can be run without the computer slowing down and disrupting learning.

 

BYOD Student Agreement:

All students are permitted to use their own computing devices providing they bring approved devices and complete and adhere to the student agreement.

Before students bring their devices to school, they will be required to sign a BYOD Student Agreement that sets out how the device can be used at school. This agreement outlines the school's Digital Devices and Technology Acceptable Use Policy.

This agreement is sent to Parents/Carers via a School Bytes link and must be completed at the beginning of each school year before the student is able to use their BYOD device.
