St Clare’s BYOD Scheme 2025 - Advice to Parents in EVERY Year Level
St Clare’s is a Bring Yor Own Device School (BYOD). On enrolment the expectation is that ALL students bring a suitable laptop/tablet to school each day to aid in their education. The expectation is that the device meets minimum standards, as advised, and that it is fully charged and functioning.
Having a device to standard, and meeting the requirements (being charged, functioning and ready to go) means that we can provide for your child/children, the best opportunities in their educational journey.
We recognise that parents/carers have a choice in what device to purchase and where they may choose to purchase, but also recognise that technology can be daunting.
To aid parents we have formed a non-commercial relationship (we get no financial benefit - the benefit is to us by having great devices that allow us to educate) with a large Australian company called Learning With Technology (LWT) and through this relationship we have established a purchasing portal only offering devices that would suit a student at St Clare’s.
- The devices carry three-year onsite warranty. (refer attached brochure)
- The devices carry accidental damage protection (refer attached brochure)
- The portal is open all year round.
- LWT offers two-year finance.
The portal can be accessed NOW through the link: https:/sclarehs.orderportal.com.au

- Models available and their specifications.
