Why the school is doing this
A 1:1 programme supports learning in class and at home, builds digital confidence and improves access to resources.

Parent messages
What families need to know.
How access is supported
Where FRF is used, voluntary charitable donations help support digital access and reduce barriers.
What happens if something breaks
Families get a clear repair and support route, with spare devices helping learning continue.
Parent wording note
For FRF schools, keep the wording careful: donations are voluntary charitable donations and not payments for a device, lease, rental, school fee or purchase agreement. Clear wording helps families understand the access route while protecting the school from becoming the payment collector or arrears handler.
