Kalamunda Senior High School BYOD Program Overview
Kalamunda Senior High School's Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program started in 2015 with a focus on digital literacy.

Frequently Asked Questions Do I have to use the Education version of Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365)? No. If you have a paid subscription you can use this instead. If using a paid subscription, please check OneNote is included as OneNote is used in the school, but isn t included in some subscriptions.
Frequently Asked Questions How do I change the version of Microsoft 365 installed from a paid subscription to the Education version? The subscription version must be uninstalled first, then the Education version installed. This requirement is due to Microsoft 365 licensing.
