A student having their own mobile device, enables them to have access to the Education Department’s online classroom environment, including Connect and other commercial resources.
All Applecross SHS students are required to purchase a device that meets the minimum requirements as stated in the BYOD Requirements document below. Devices that fall outside the minimum requirements will not be supported.
Students do not need to purchase MS Office 365 as it is available to school students. However, all students should have a USB storage device (minimum 8 GB) for their files and backup.
Please note: The school does not manage, support or warrant the device. The Applecross SHS Technicians will assist in connecting to the school network but will not be responsible for repairs, support or virus removal.
Only students who have submitted their signed Acceptable Use Agreement upon enrolment will be connected to the school network.
Year 7 students starting the year at Applecross Senior High School will be scheduled to attend the Library during a class period to connect to the school network. Outside of that, students can go to the IT Office in the Library during non-class time (from 7:30 in the morning until the start of Period 1, during recess and lunch or after school until the Library closes) to get connected to the school network.
