Financial Services

Handbooks are an insight into the programs offered each year to a cohort

Depending on student numbers, interest, and staffing availability these may change year to year.

Contributions and Charges

We believe that the best way to provide a quality education is through the provision of modern resources and equipment for our students. These resources and equipment, although supported by our public education system, are also provided through the payment of Contributions and Charges.

Personal Item lists are resources required for the year

These lists are reviewed annually by our Leaning Area Leaders and the College Board in ensure that all items are relevant.

BYOD Requirements

Students will need to have a device in their possession each school day in order to maximise participation in the learning opportunities and activities presented in their classroom.  Apple and windows devices should be used within the school.

  • Android devices and iPad Mini are not supported.
  • Chromebooks are not supported.
  • Second-hand and reconditioned Apple/Windows devices are acceptable.
  • A drop proof case & care protection/warranty are recommended.
  • Minimum storage of 64GB.

If your child is enrolling in media type classes, consider getting a larger capacity device to store recorded video.

While you may source your device from anywhere, the College has partnered with two companies that provide discounted or special rates on devices.

The College makes every effort to protect students from inappropriate websites, and we recommend that safe internet practices are followed outside of the College as well. Running services such as VPNs to evade restrictions will result in the device being banned from our network. Please see our IT policy at https://byfordsc.wa.edu.au/policies Private insurance of your student’s device is strongly recommended as the college is not liable for any damage to personal items.
