Learning with iPads
Purpose
Bomaderry High School aims to deliver an innovative, efficient, informed, inclusive and connected school network to improve student growth and attainment, skills, engagement and opportunities for their future. This is underpinned by the NSW Government – Schools Digital Strategy and the NSW Department of Education School Excellence Framework. Teachers strive to expertly integrate technology into lessons and all staff are working towards being expert users of available technology and systems. The iPad was chosen as the preferred technology tool for Years 7-10.

Parent purchasing portal
BHS has established a parent purchasing portal with EDUCOM IT.
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) purchasing portal:

Parents will still have the choice to purchase their devices at any other outlet but will be unable to access the support services through this portal.
School loaned iPads
Students who are not able to bring an iPad to school for a short or long term will be supported to access the same educational opportunities as all students enrolled at Bomaderry High School when there are devices available through the school’s Equity Policy. Enquiries can be made through the school via the Deputy Principal for the year group.
