Student Devices For Learning
At Banksia Park International High School (BPIHS), we are futures focused committed to exposing students to current and emerging technologies that support learning and prepare them for the demands of a digital world.
It is an expectation that every student has access to a laptop to fully engage in their learning. Technology is used daily across the curriculum to enhance learning experiences and help students develop essential skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, and digital literacy. Through the effective use of digital platforms and tools, students learn to navigate, evaluate, and create information confidently ensuring they are well prepared as global and digital citizens.
New in 2026
BPIHS has partnered with Learning with Technologies (LWT) to provide up to date, reliable devices at educational pricing through a dedicated Student Device Portal. From 2026, it will be a requirement that all Year 7 students purchase their device from this portal. This ensures all students have access to a consistent, school approved device that supports learning, is compatible with required software, and will be fully managed and supported by the BPIHS ICT Team throughout the student’s enrolment.
From 2026 newly enrolled students or student looking to purchase a new device will no longer be able to bring their own device and will be expected to have a device purchased from the purchasing portal. Parents and caregivers who may experience financial difficulty in meeting this requirement are encouraged to contact their relevant Year Level Leader to discuss options available.
This new Laptop Program will roll out progressively with each new Year 7 cohort, new students and replacement devices and is expected to cover all year levels by 2030
