Rationale
The introduction of a “Bring Your Own iPad” (BYOiPad) program at The Jannali High School (TJHS) has empowered students while providing them with direct involvement in the way they use technology in their learning.
At the same time, BYOiPad enables teachers to develop their knowledge and skills, engage students through the use of different pedagogies and enhance the learning process by involving technology in the classroom.
Students in Year 7 2025 are expected to bring an iPad to school each day to support their classroom learning as a requirement of the school’s BYO program.
At TJHS, the iPad is viewed as a learning device, that enhances student engagement. There is a focus on developing inquiry-based learning, creative, collaborative and individualised learning experiences, to extend student learning experiences. The iPad provides students with an anywhere, anytime learning device, with the aim of ensuring a differentiated learning framework.
The school has formed partnerships with several suppliers to provide families with the option to purchase BYOD compatible devices, compliant with the school requirements, at competitive education based prices.
The school purchase portal hosted by JB Hi-Fi provides families with the option to purchase BYOD compatible devices, compliant with the school requirements, at competitive education based prices. School code is TJHS
The school purchase portal hosted by Educom IT provides families with the option to purchase BYOD compatible devices, compliant with the school requirements, at competitive education based prices.
