Bring Your Own Device
Secondary Students studying at CSCC are required to supply their own device for use at CSCC as part of the college’s Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program.
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program.
A central aim of the college’s BYOD program is to support the use of BYODs, more specifically notebooks/laptops from Years 7-12. To assist acquiring these devices at a reasonable cost, the college provides the below PDF which summarises devices deemed appropriate as a BYOD as well as listing devices which would not be suitable.

Why do students need a device?
-
Students need to be able to electronically communicate, create content, interact with others and electronically submit work while studying at CSCC. Significant examples of the college’s use of digital tools include the use of Compass, email, Internet and other digital resources. Compass allows all students to see details of their course and electronically submit tasks, is used for online reporting and monitoring of every students’ progress, and allows for student and parent/carer access.

Important note about theft and warranties
-
Creek Street Christian College does NOT provide insurance or warranty to cover theft or damage to student’s device. We recommend that you give consideration towards purchasing an extended warranty and insurance when purchasing a new laptop. Your family’s home and contents insurance may cover it; however, it would be best to check prior to purchase.
Creek Street Christian College does not conduct any software updates or fault investigations on student devices. The College will endeavor to help students with minor device issues and provide basic feedback if issue known. Device warranties and insurance assist with timely repairs by vendors and reduce the chance of your student being without a device for an extended period of time.
