Introduction to the State School Consent Form (attached) for Mansfield State High School
This letter is to inform you about how we will use your child’s personal information and student
materials. It outlines:
 what information we record
 how we will use student materials created during your child’s enrolment.
Examples of personal information which may be used and disclosed (subject to consent) include part
of a person’s name, image/photograph, voice/video recording or year level.
Your child’s student materials:
 are created by your child whether as an individual or part of a team
 may identify each person who contributed to the creation
 may represent Indigenous knowledge or culture.
Purpose of the consent

It is the school’s usual practice to take photographs or record images of students and occasionally to
publish limited personal information and student materials for the purpose of celebrating student
achievement and promoting the school and more broadly celebrating Queensland education.
To achieve this, the school may use newsletters, its website, traditional media, social media or other
new media as listed in the ‘Media Sources’ section below.
The State School Consent Form may, at your discretion, provide consent for personal information
and a licence for the student materials to be published online or in other public forums. It also allows
your child’s personal information and student materials to be presented in part or alongside other
students’ achievements.
The school needs to receive consent in writing before it uses or discloses your child’s personal
information or student materials in a public forum. The attached form is a record of the consent
provided.
It should be noted that in some instances the school may be required by the Education (General
Provisions) Act 2006 (Qld) or by law to record, use or disclose the student’s personal information or
materials without consent (e.g. assessment of student materials does not require further consent).

Voluntary
There will not be any negative repercussions for not completing the State School Consent Form or
for giving limited consent. All students will continue to receive their education regardless of whether
consent is given or not.
Consent may be limited or withdrawn

Consent may be limited or withdrawn at any time by you.
If you wish to limit or withdraw consent please notify the school in writing (by email or letter). The
school will confirm the receipt of your request via email if you provide an email address.
If in doubt, the school may treat a notice to limit consent as a comprehensive withdrawal of consent
until the limit is clarified to the school’s satisfaction.
Due to the nature of the internet and social media (which distributes and copies information), it may
not be possible for all copies of information (including images of student materials) once published
by consent, to be deleted or restricted from use.
The school may take down content that is under its direct control, however, published information
and materials cannot be deleted and the school is under no obligation to communicate changes to
consent with other entities/ third parties.
Media sources used
Following is a list of online and social media websites and traditional media sources where the
school may publish your child’s personal information or student materials subject to your consent.

 Instagram: n/a
 Twitter: n/a
 LinkedIn: n/a

Consent Form, or until you decide to limit or withdraw your consent.

One-to-one laptop program

Mansfield State High School has always had a strong emphasis on providing students every opportunity to achieve or
exceed their potential academically, culturally and socially. As a school we recognise the importance that technology is
now playing in everyday lives beyond school, including universities and the workplace. As a result, Mansfield State
High School has a one-to-one personal laptop program. All students are required to bring a personal laptop to school.
Detailed information is available on the school website.
There are a range of options for providing a device. If your child already has a suitable device, they may be able to
bring this to school (Bring your own device or BYOD). Alternatively, there is a school purchased laptop program where
you pay a participation fee and the school buys and maintains ownership of the device including installation and
maintenance of all software for three years. Other options can be negotiated based on need including the use of loan
devices.
School laptop program

The school laptop program is a cost-effective three-year program with entry points in Year 7 and Year 10. In this
program the school bulk purchases laptops for students. The school maintains ownership for three years. At the end of
three years the laptop may be transferred to the family after all school software is removed and a new version of the
current Windows OS is installed. The school laptop program includes the following benefits:
 A robust commercial grade device built for the rigours of school and guaranteed to work on the school network
 Inclusion of extended warranty and accidental damage protection
 Computrace capability to allow tracking in case of theft
 Fully compatible software including enterprise operating system with automatic updates and patches. Health
of system is monitored and maintained by technical staff.
 All school specific software included, installed and maintained
 Full technical support via IT Helpdesk including a hot swap device if repairs are needed
 Internet is filtered at school and at home (Social media sites blocked in school hours).
To join the program, the participation fee is paid in full prior to delivery. Payment options are available but must be
finalised prior to delivery which is scheduled at the beginning of the school year. If this is not suitable, the best option
is BYOD where longer payment plans are available. Indicative costs and specific model of the laptop are to be
determined later in 2023.
Sample laptop
Below is a standard specification laptop suitable for all years. Current price through the school, including operating
system and all school required software is approximately $1,550 in 2023.
 Intel Core i5
 8GB RAM
 256GB SSD
 14” Touch Screen & Stylus Pen
 3yr Warranty & Accidental Damage Cover
 Protective Case
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

Students can bring their own device if the device meets certain minimum specifications. The sample device on the
previous page is a good guide for recommended specifications. This can be a device you already own or one you want
to purchase yourself. We have made selecting a BYO device easier by arranging several vendor portals. Portal
information can be found on our website: https://mansfieldshs.eq.edu.au/extra-curricular/computer-and-internet/bring-
your-own-device-b-y-o-d#PORTALS
If BYOD is your preferred option, please be aware of these considerations:

 Many cheaper devices do not have sturdy cases and are more prone to damage when being transported in
students' bags.
 Older laptops may suffer from a shortened battery life and a replacement battery may be necessary to ensure
it lasts a full school day.
 Families are responsible for all repairs and warranty claims. It is highly recommended that extended next
business day warranty is purchased along with accidental damage protection. It is also important to check
your contents insurance to see if the laptop is covered or can be added to the policy for loss or theft.
 Microsoft Office and Adobe CC applications can be installed for free on BYO devices. However, some
software may not be covered by school licences e.g. QAX, MYOB, Sibelius etc. Information will be provided
when choosing subjects. These programs will need to be installed by the family.
 Support from IT Technicians will not be able to include hardware issues and can only offer assistance limited
to connecting to the school network and installing school software.
 Some vendors may offer the option to have the device repaired at school. This would require first arranging
the service with the vendor and leaving the device at an IT collection point for repair.
 Internet is filtered at school but not at home. Advice can be provided for securing home internet.
There are a range of cheaper laptop options from various electronics stores that may appear to be a bargain. It is our
experience and the experience of many current BYO schools that these cheaper models do not last as long as the
models offered in the school laptop program and this results in a poor experience for the students. Please consider the
models offered in the BYOD Portals.
