This document discusses bringing your own device (BYOD) initiatives at a school. It provides some statistics on BYOD uptake rates among different year groups at the school, ranging from 60% of devices in 2014 for Year 6 to 90% for Year 9 in 2014. Support mechanisms are in place for BYOD, including a technology support officer who assists students with connecting devices and troubleshooting issues. A trial of Microsoft 365 is also being rolled out starting with Year 9, allowing students to download the full Microsoft Office suite. The document concludes with an invitation for questions about BYOD and the Microsoft 365 rollout.
