Expectations

Students are expected to use their device in accordance with the BSC Acceptable Users Agreement.

NOTE: All students and parents must agree to the conditions of the BSC Acceptable Use Agreement in order to be granted access to the school network.

Any contravention of this agreement may result in the student losing access to the school network.

This form is completed upon enrolment.

Choice of Device

Students can choose to purchase a new BSC Preferred Device, a new BYOD non-preferred device, or to use a device that they already own.

As implied, BSC Preferred Devices have been identified as those that best meet the college's needs in respect to BSC Network connectivity and range of use within the classroom environment, primarily operating on the Microsoft platforms.
Students can use BYOD non-preferred devices providing they meet minimum requirements.

This is not the school's preferred option as these devices may not have full access to software provided by the Department of Education and will have limited hardware support from the IT Department.

Select the button that best describes your preference in order to access information, requirements and processes to access the BSC Network.
