Student laptop initiative


At the end of 2011, Eltham High School started rolling out the One to One Laptop Program initiated by the then Rudd Government for the start of the 2012 school year. This program involved the purchase of several hundred Dell Inspiron M102z laptops, either under funding from the Australian National Secondary School Computer Fund (NSSCF) to provide access for students in Years 9–12 or funded through a lease agreement for students in Years 7 and 8.

This program has continued in 2013 with the roll out of more than 230 Dell XT3 tablet laptops to Year 7 students. All the notebooks in the program run a standard operating environment (SOE) provided by DEECD with a multitude of free and paid software. As of 2018, Eltham High School's chosen device was the Microsoft Surface Pro 4. The school also has licensing for a number of additional commercial software suites including Adobe Master Collection, which is available on all classroom and library computers and will be installed on select lease laptops dependent on student course enrolment.
Further changes to the school curriculum have been made since the implementation of the program. Since 2015 all Year 7 texts have been in digital format.
