STOP THE
LAPTOP SQUEEZE
The school is forcing us to pay 1200 GBP or a monthly subscription for locked-down devices.
Why We Must Act 🚩
Financial Burden
Charging students extra for "admin-locked" devices when families already pay 50K GBP/year is a blatant money grab.
Zero Control
The mandated devices are admin-locked. Students cannot install apps (Microsoft Store only) on hardware they OWN.
No Alternatives
The "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD) policy is being abolished. Secondary devices are strictly forbidden.

"We are already paying 50K a year. Being forced to buy a locked-down laptop that we have no control over is insulting. This isn't about education; it's about control and profit."

"The BYOD policy worked perfectly. Restricting students to a single, expensive device that restricts their ability to explore software is a step backwards for a 'modern' school."
