Wireless Student Network
A wireless student network for internet access using student owned personal electronic devices is being provided at Braeside School. Access is available to students on a voluntary basis.
The focus of this technology is on student learning and places responsibility on students for appropriate use and behavior. Parents/guardians are encouraged to discuss the learning opportunities and the risks with their son or daughter. Be assured that the content filtering that is normally used to filter inappropriate materials on the school’s internal network will also be applied to the open access network. This is a significant opportunity for students to personalize their learning by choosing with their parents appropriate technology for their learning needs.
As with any personal belonging that a student brings to school, the school can not be responsible for electronic devices that are lost, stolen or damaged. Thank you for your attention to this important information.

Digital Citizenship at the CBE
Digital citizenship is about using technology and participating in digital environments. It is key to helping our students learn to use available technology responsibly in the classroom and beyond. Our school has a Digital Citizenship Plan that is updated annually, addressing how we work to build a community where we live and work together as digital citizens.
Visit the CBE website to learn more about how we support students to develop online safety skills and be good digital citizens.
Personal Mobile Devices
Student personal mobile devices are limited or restricted at all schools, unless required for health or medical needs, to support specialized learning needs, and for educational purposes. Learn more about our BYOD (bring your own device) rules.
