Bring Your Own Device Program
At Mill Park Secondary College, we are committed to providing the best possible learning environment for our students. An important element of this is for students to have access to digital and online tools that support students’ learning across the college.
The school’s BYOD program allows families to purchase a laptop for students to bring to school, and in 2024 we are partnering with a preferred supplier, Learning with Technologies (LWT), to provide access to a range of devices that we believe will support families in this process.
By sourcing a ‘school preferred device’ through the LWT portal students have access to a wider range of school-based software products as well as ensuring that there is a high level of security, and connection to the school network is trouble free. They can also be confident that there will be a high level of support, both from our IT team and the supplier should there be any issues with the device over the next three years.
The key advantages of purchasing a preferred device through the LWT portal include:
Local file storage and back-up for students’ files
- Streamlined network and printing access
- Access to an enhanced suite of college software applications
- Comprehensive warranty and support
There is no obligation to purchase a device through this supplier, and we understand that some students may already have a laptop which they wish to bring to school. As long as the device meets the minimum specifications listed below, this is acceptable.
We encourage you to visit the LWT online portal, review the devices and to consider whether they meet the needs of your child.
- Orders need to be placed by Sunday 26/11/2023 for handout in the first week of Term 1 2024.
Should you have any questions or require further assistance, do not hesitate to reach out to our dedicated support team.
Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. Together, we can ensure they embark on a journey of knowledge, growth, and success.
