BYOD

Technology plays a large role in our students’ lives. Personal devices can enhance and enrich learning opportunities both at home and school. Ignatius Park College is committed to allowing responsible, learning-centred use of personal devices at school so as to provide as many pathways to understanding as possible for our students.

The introduction of the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Program from 2019 supports our vision of Liberating Education, by responding to the diverse learning needs of our students and to provide access to electronic educational resources at any time and from any place. A netbook or laptop is necessary to personalise learning experiences so that our students may develop as critical thinkers in a globalised world.
