DigiTal DEVICE BYODD Programs 2023

Holy Spirit's decision to introduce a 'Bring Your Own Designated Digital Device' (or BYODD) program has come after much consideration and discussion.

In 2023 Year 7 & 8 students will be required to have an iPad for their studies. This iPad should be new enough to run the lastest iOS and have at least 32 Gb of memory.

Year 9 -12 students will need to acquire an Apple Macbook computer for their studies . Further information on the type of Macbook can be found HERE. A website with setup instructions can be accessed from HERE.

Year 8 students may transition to a Macbook only if their iPad is damaged or lost. This is NOT the College's preferred option given teachers prepare lessons around students having iPads. Students will need to see their Year Coordinator to initiate this transition. The form required to transition can be found HERE

Holy Spirit College aims is to improve student engagement, participation and achievement in their studies. These digital devices are a powerful tool for collaboration, active participation, critical thinking, innovation and discovery. They also allow students to personalise their learning to suit their individual needs, abilities and interests.
