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 technology device brought into the school and is owned by a student or the student's family.
All students have access to laptops at school and will not need to bring their own device, but if you do decide to participate in the BYOD program, the following are recommendations based on ‘fit for purpose’ products currently available:
- Minimum requirements would be for a Notebook, Chromebook, or iPad, or preferably a laptop or MacBook. Please ensure the devices are supplied with a suitable protective case and have a manageable screen size.
- Chromebooks tend to be a cheaper alternative, and are standard in the school. These devices use Google docs and can access Office 365.
