We recognise that not every family has easy access to a digital device for their child(ren). We would like to help those families that we can, by offering a loan of one of the school devices for the coming school year.
A huge focus for us this year is developing ICT skills for all - teachers, ANAs, pupils and parents - and so the loaning of devices will not be dependent on the school building being closed but will be for the school year, regardless of whether the children are learning in the school building or at home. Devices will be collected at the end of each term and re-distributed at the start of the following term.
Unfortunately, we have a limited number of devices that we can offer on loan to families. Devices will be allocated to families based on need, according to the following categories:
If your family would like to apply for the loan of a device, please complete the form below by Friday 21st August. We will inform you by August 28th whether we are able to loan you a device, and arrange for you to collect the device the following week.
Families borrowing a school device will be asked to sign our Distance Learning - Digital Device Acceptable Use Agreement. Please read this agreement before applying to borrow a device.

- Families where the proportion of people to devices is low e.g. 6 in the house and only 2 devices
- Other
