BYOD Form
We want to maximise the learning enabled by these devices and as a result have introduced an optional 'Bring Your Own Device' programme.

This will mean that students, if they wish, can bring an approved device to their regular classroom every day.  Teachers will direct how these devices will be used to support learning. We strongly recommend that a robust case/cover is purchased.

There is no expectation for students to bring a device to school.  If you are concerned about cost, theft, or feel that your child is not yet responsible enough to bring a device to school, then please do not apply for the BYOD scheme.

Recognising the rapidly changing world of technology the minimum specifications for devices will be reviewed regularly.

Bringing a device to school is a privilege and students wishing to do so must demonstrate an agreed level of responsibility.

If you would like your child to bring a device to school please complete the form below. 

PERMITTED DEVICES:
Only Chromebooks will be supported from 2025 and beyond.

BYOD Chromebooks
Please be aware that if you decide to bring a BYOD device it will be enrolled on the school’s device management system when first brought onsite, they will remain on this system for the period the student is at Mount Maunganui Intermediate.
Restrictions are applied to the device to ensure it is compatible with the school’s ICT policies during this time which may restrict some device functionality, devices taken offsite will still have these restrictions, the device will be removed from our system when the student ceases to be a student at Mount Maunganui Intermediate.
