Central continues to drive digital knowledge with an optional “Bring Your Own Device” (BYOx) to school program for Year 3-6.
For parents who wish their child to participate please review the attached BYOx Booklet as it contains the detailed information about what is required.
For parents/caregivers who are not able to take up this opportunity initially, there is a process to allow their child to hire a device until one can be purchased on a term by term basis. This can be taken home each day for the duration of the loan. Hire fees must be paid prior to delivery of the device.
For parents who choose not to provide a device at all, their child will have access to a shared device, with a ratio similar to that which currently exists in our Year 3 – Year 6 classes (1:5).
The pack contains information about the program, minimum specifications for devices as well as documentation to complete and return.
- The forms need to be completed and returned ASAP. Please return:
- ICT Acceptable Use Agreement
- BYOx Agreement
- If applicable: Application for access to school owned device.
Also included is a FAQ for parents and the other is Student Charter information. Gladstone Central State School BYOx Student Charter v2.pdf
