IPAD PROGRAM

Students at Melville Senior High School will be expected to bring their own iPad. For technical reasons, other devices such as notebook computers, tablets and smart phones cannot be substituted.

Graphic Design Media Specialist Program students may have different computer requirements and will be advised separately.

Any iPad model that is not more than six years old is considered acceptable for use at Melville Senior High School.

Your BYO iPad may be purchased from a supplier of your own choice. However, Winthrop Australia offer a tailored school package for the purchase of recommended iPads and the recommended Apple Mac Pro for our Graphic Design Media specialist program. Click on the button below to access their portal. All bundles include extended warranty and some include accidental damage coverage.

It is recommended that the iPad or MacBook your child brings to school is insured and that the Apple Care Warranty is purchased. Winthrop Australia also offers insurance at point of sale. A strong protective case should also be purchased for the iPad. Parents or students will need an iTunes account to access the Apps store and some selected apps will be required as part of the program.

A Bring Your Own Connectable E-Device Acceptable Use Policy Agreement must be signed by all parents and students at the beginning of each school year. The form is available on the button below.

Please read and sign the Acceptable Use Policy and return the tear off form to the school front office in the drop box provided.

If you require further information on this initiative please contact the ICT & Learning Resource Centre Coordinator, Ms Deirdre Lewis, on 6274 1300.
