There are a many different ways that parents can monitor their child’s internet usage both on their iPads and also on their other devices. We would strongly recommend that all parents actively engage in a conversation with their children around online safety and that as part of this they agree parameters for monitoring their usage at home.

If your iPad is lost, broken or needs repairing, please follow the link below to complete the short form.

iPad check-in form

You only need to contact us when the problem relates to the iPad itself. If anything has happened with the case, stylus or charger then we would expect you to replace those items at your own expense. The exception being that if you believe the charger is not working properly then please bring the charger to the IT department and it will be dealt with in the same way as the iPad not working properly.

We have a process in place for dealing with any problem that arises with the iPad that was issued by the school as part of the SJB Apple iPad Scheme (this does not include those who have decided to bring their own devices into school).

This process covers:

• iPad not working properly
• iPad lost
• iPad stolen
• iPad damaged

To help make the process clear for each instance please see below:

If your iPad or charger is not working properly, then please return your iPad (including charger) to the ICT Support Team, explaining in as much detail as possible what you believe is the issue.

If your iPad is stolen you must report the theft to the police and get a crime reference number. The police will need the iPad serial number in order to register the theft. This can be obtained from the ICT Support Team via email (ipad@sjb.surrey.sch.uk). Once you have this information please complete the form below and return it to the ICT Support Team with payment for the excess, which is £50.

If your iPad is damaged you must complete the iPad check in form and return your iPad and the charger to IT Support. Where possible repairs will be made, if this is not possible and an insurance claim is necessary you will be contacted by a member of the team to request payment of the £50 excess.

If your iPad is lost then you are not covered. In this instance you will need to replace the iPad at your own expense. It may be possible to purchase a replacement through the school so please contact the ICT Support Team if this occurs (you will be charged the full cost of replacement). The payment and declaration form at the bottom can be used for payments for the replacement of lost iPads.

Your child’s iPad is insured against accidental damage and theft for the 2/3 years (depending on the year group your child is in). All claims must be reported to the ICT Support Team within 7 days so that the claim can be made on your behalf (including all completed paperwork and the excess payment).

Our Vision…

• To continually strive to provide all our students with the best possible access to learning.
• To help all our students achieve their full potential.
• To encourage independent learning and equip our students for adult life.
• To offer all our students access to a variety of learning styles.

The Concept…

• To ensure that your child has access to an Apple iPad to support their learning.
• Students will use their iPad for research, homework and for communicating with their peers and teachers.

We Believe…

• Learning does not stop as soon as you walk out of the school gate, it can take place anywhere at any time!
• Everyone at SJB should be connected digitally to communicate, share and engage in learning (students, teachers and parents).
• Every student and family should be included.

We believe that technology, if used correctly and at the right times, can have a profound effect on your child’s learning. Technology can be engaging, exciting and can open up new possibilities, which may have been difficult or even impossible to achieve in the past. The pace at which technology is moving is astonishing! New advances in technology mean that we are at the dawn of a new age, where students can collaborate, investigate and explore like never before. This is not to say that traditional teaching methods are not important. On the contrary, the teacher, environment and resources are all extremely important too. But, if we are to prepare our students for their future, we must act now by equipping them with the technology that will enable them to develop the skills that they will need.

What is the iPad Scheme?

The iPad Scheme provides all the children in Years 7 to 11 with an Apple iPad to use every day to support their learning. For further information about the scheme please see Year 7 Sept 2023 – Welcome guide. Where children join us mid-year or part way though their school journey, we work with parents to facilitate the scheme as necessary.
