In the event of a delayed start to Term 2, GSSC is providing school laptops on loan to students who do not have access, or have strictly limited access, to a home computer. Parents and carers are encouraged to register their interest on our student management system, Compass.

The Compass home page has a link to some simple terms and conditions for students to borrow a laptop until the resumption of normal school routines. With remote learning for most students a possibility from the commencement of Term 2, we encourage parents and carers to register their interest now on Compass.

To manage social distancing and stay-at-home health measures, GSSC staff will deliver laptops to student homes. While GSSC has a large number of laptops available for loan, preference may need to be given to higher year levels in the unlikely event demand is greater than supply. Please note: the offer of a laptop on loan is to support students with a genuine need and not for convenience purposes.

If you encounter any difficulty logging in or using the Compass program, our Compass Helpline will be available from 9am to 3pm, 6-9 April on 03 5858 9882. Parents and carers can also register their interest in borrowing a laptop on this helpline.

GSSC has also produced a pdf quick guide (1.64 MB)  for remote learning as a one-page reference to the key things students, parents and carers need to know.

NOTE - We have translated this quick guide to assist families from a non-English speaking background:

Furher information on this page provides in-depth guides to the online tools we are using in remote learning, including Compass and Microsoft Teams. If you encounter any difficulty logging in or using the Compass program, call our Compass Helpline during business hours on 4804 5600.
