For the duration of Years 7, 8 and 9, the laptop is owned by the College. Considerable cost savings around software licensing are possible while the College owns the device. At the end of Year 9, ownership of the laptop is transferred to the family where their child can continue to use the laptop in Year 10, or upgrade to a new device that meets the requirements of our Year 10 - 12 Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program.
