Technology & Learning Tools: What You Need to Know
We use a Bring Your Own Device model and recommend an Apple MacBook (2021 or newer). It offers the best compatibility with our systems and ensures your child can access all learning resources smoothly.
If you're already an Apple family, you're likely well set up. If not, we can point you to suppliers who offer discounted pricing for ACC families.
Not at all.
Our team supports students every step of the way, and parents don't need to troubleshoot complex tech. Devices are used to access lessons, submit work, join live calls, and connect with teachers, all through simple, student-friendly platforms.
You'll need a reliable internet connection and a few practical tools like:
- Headphones (especially for assessments)
- A printer/scanner (for submitting some tasks)
- A camera (a phone works well!) for a few creative projects
We'll provide a list of learning materials once you're enrolled. You can expect:
- Everyday stationery and notebooks
- Some subject-specific items (like art or cooking materials)
- Optional kits for hands-on science activities
We aim to keep things as simple and affordable as possible. Wherever we can, we use materials you already have at home.
Yes. We've partnered with JB Hi-Fi to make device purchasing easier for families, and our tech team is happy to help you feel confident before you get started.
