BYOD
In 2016, Clutha Valley School is introducing BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) for students in Years 4-8. The preferred option is an HP 11.6 Chromebook. We have been working alongside Cyclone who are a Google Authorised agent and are part of the competitive Government buying scheme which the school is part of. The package that Cyclone is offering can be found on their website by clicking here.
Scroll down on the Cyclone home page to the part called Student Owned Devices. Select Clutha Valley School and put in the code 2155clutha. When it asks for a Student ID, just put in your child's name. Delivery of the chromebooks is direct to parents, but you can choose to have it delivered to the school address if you wish.
We realise that some people may wish to shop through other retailers, and that is your choice. However, all BYOD devices will need to have the Management Console and White Glove system added, which is done through Cyclone, at 107 Princes St, Dunedin, at a cost of $99 per device. We recommend that you also purchase a protective cover.
A BYOD user agreement must be signed by the student, parent/caregiver and the school prior to personal devices being used at school. You can download the user agreement below.
