Why do we ask students to bring their own devices?
As the advancement of technology in our society continues to develop at an unprecedented pace, device ownership provides a range of benefits to our learners:
- Empowered learning ownership at home and at school.
- Easier access to collaborative tasks with peers outside of school.
- A guided approach to device ownership in a classroom setting - to better prepare students for the transition to Senior School.
What does this programme mean for my child?
Your child will need to have their own 2-in-1 hybrid device before the start of the academic year.
What device and accessories should l purchase for my child?
We have minimum device requirements and accessories. The device should be a 2-in-1 laptop & tablet model with inking (writing) capabilities, front and rear-facing cameras and a stylus pen. This will allow students maximum flexibility to access all learning experiences, eg. Filming programming and inking (writing) directly into software such as Microsoft OneNote.
We highly recommend a Microsoft Windows device, as our lT department are able to offer specialized support.
iPads cannot be used as a student's main device in Senior School.
