The program provides board-owned computers to students to use over a four-year period at home and at school, but the school board says there were more devices being used in schools and more costs associated with repairs
The Toronto District School Board says it will charge families for repairs to Chromebooks that are provided to students as part of an initiative to allow for more equitable access to technology.
The program, initiated three years ago, offers board-owned Chromebooks to students in Grades 5 and 9 to use over a four-year period both at home and in school. According to the TDSB, the scheme “supports learning through technology, digital citizenship and our commitment to equity of access to technology.”
