Exciting changes for 2021

By OBHS | Posted: Thursday October 22, 2020

In 2021, all students at Otago Boys High School will need to bring along a device to school every day as an integral part of their learning.

COVID-19 lockdown was a challenging time for all of us and the amazing response of students and teachers at Otago Boys' showed that technology is an essential part of schooling and in the world. We embarked on this timely change within our school with the Juniors in 2020 and next year in 2021 this will roll out to all classes for all students.

Otago Boys' High School is committed to providing both opportunities and an environment for all students to succeed and each student having their own device is the next step in our drive for continuing to offer the best education for your son. B.Y.O.D. (Bring Your Own Device) is an exciting initiative that will enable the school to use modern teaching and learning methods to ensure that we deliver what is best for boys through the right learning.

Please contact the school if you have any questions or concerns.

Next week we will cover what sort of device will be suitable (spoiler: battery life is incredibly important).
