Laptops scheme during coronavirus

[ass17]

Hi all,

 

Are pupils expected to give the laptop back or is it permanently theirs to keep.

 

Clarification on ownership and if the pupil has the right to factory reset the computer is unclear. I understand there is MDM software installed by the local authorities so the device can be traced etc.. but can a pupil remove this?

 

Any thoughts please...Thanks

As far as im aware is that it is for the students to keep.

Ownership stays with the LEA at first I believe. Eventually, ownership transfers to their school, but I believe it is expected the device will follow them through to a new school should they change school also.
