Laptop Program. Every student in Years 7 – 12 is to be issued a laptop computer under the College’s 1 to 1 Laptop Program which is an integral and compulsory part of the educational program. All students in the Middle and Senior Schools must have a College provided laptop computer at school with them each day. The model of notebook allocated to the student will be determined both by the cohort of which the student is a member, and the available laptops reserves at that point in time. Laptop computers for student use are rented by the College in three-year cycles, after which generally the equipment is returned to the bank. All computers in the 1 to 1 Laptop Program are covered by warranty and insurance and share the same software platform for the effective delivery of curriculum. Students may not use an older computer which is no longer in the program or one supplied from home for use in the 1 to 1 Laptop Program. Students use Office 365 Education which includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Sway, Microsoft Teams and additional classroom tools. Using a valid school email address, students can use cloud technology to access files from any device, anywhere, with increased workflow control. School work is automatically updated and saved to their allocated 1TB of free storage. Windows Software provides familiar, robust, and productive experiences streamlined for security and classroom performance that enable educators to personalise learning experiences. Students can access tools that spark creativity that allow them to create, collaborative, curate content and connect with curriculum. At the end of the three-year period or if the student leaves the College, the computer and peripherals are to be returned to the IT department in a working condition with reasonable wear and tear. Any Non-Warranty damage to the laptop or peripherals will need to be repaired. Any costs relating to repairs will be charged to the student’s college fees.
