Bring Your Own Device


 

 

 

What is Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)?

At Braybrook College, BYOD means a student brings their own laptop or netbook to school. The device may or may not be purchased through the school. For equity reasons, we have attempted to allow flexibility in the choice of device and operating system. 

 

However, the device must meet the College minimum specifications relating to hardware, software, networking capabilities, and battery life (see BYOD Parent Information Booklet linked below).

 

Why BYOD?

The integration of ICT tools across the curriculum at Braybrook College allows for an enhanced learning experience through greater flexibility, differentiation and a focus on learning rather than on the device used in class. Braybrook College has successfully integrated ICT into its curriculum over a number of years, while we believe the BYOD Program will continue to enhance the learning outcomes of students.

The school offers three options:

  1. Purchase a new device through Braybrook College via the LWT Online Portal.
  2. Purchase / bring a device from a retailer.
  3. Short term loans of Chromebook devices (exceptional circumstances only)
