At St Pius X, our focus is on 21st century learning. 

Digital technology is an excellent tool to assist students with their learning and is extremely useful for supporting students as they develop skills in creativity, innovation, team work, collaboration, problem-solving, communication and information and ICT literacy.

All students at St Pius X are required to bring a suitable tablet device to school each day. Students are responsible for charging the device overnight and for having it in good working order for lessons each day. Students are responsible for the care and safety of their devices. The school takes no responsibility for loss or damage of these devices.

Damaged or faulty devices must be repaired as quickly as possible. The school does not keep spare tablets for loan to students without a device.
