BYOD – BRING YOUR OWN DEVICE
BYOD is an option at Pasadena Intermediate School. We strongly encourage students to bring their own devices
to school to use as a tool for learning. The only requirement for devices is that they can use
a wireless network, and are used on battery power.
PASADENA INTERMEDIATE BRING YOUR OWN DEVICE AGREEMENTTo the parent/caregiver/legal guardian, please: 1. Read this page carefully with your child to check you both understand your responsibilities under this agreement. 2. By ticking yes on the enrolment form I agree with the below conditions and have discussed these with my child | |
School Responsibilities | At our school, we will: · encourage safe and effective use of technology and the internet · work within the school’s digital technology guidelines · provide clear guidelines around the use of devices brought from home · provide safe storage for students’ devices when not in use, e.g. break times. If a student breaches the BYOD agreement, they may lose the privilege of bringing their own device to school, and the school’s behaviour management plan may be invoked. |
Student Responsibilities | When I bring my device to school I will: · follow the school’s digital technology rules · use my device when and where the teacher gives me permission · only access the internet with the teacher’s permission and if an adult is present · only use my own login and password · be in control of my device and not share it with other students, apart from letting them see the screen · charge my device at home so that it doesn’t need charging at school · take care of my device so that it isn’t damaged or stolen. I will not use my device to be mean, rude, or offensive to anyone. |
