STUDENT RESOURCE SCHEME 2020 YEAR 7 – 12 INCLUSIVE SRS Fee 2020: $325 per student

The Principal and Parents and Citizens Association of Pacific Pines SHS are proud to be able to extend to you the opportunity to take advantage of the school’s Student Resource Scheme. The scheme is authorised to operate under the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006 and Department of Education Training and Employment Policy. The major purpose of the Student Resource Scheme is to provide an extremely cost effective and efficient strategy to parents and students which:

Reduces the heavy financial outlay for parents in providing a wide variety of student resources

Eliminates shopping for text books and resources

Gives students access to a wide range of up-to-date resources

Supplements consumable resources which are used to ensure real life learning experiences for our students

Assists in maintaining a high level of technology across the school learning environment Accommodates a range of school based and workplace programs to enhance student skill development. Provision of student’s personal stationery requirements will be the responsibility of the parents and students. Please refer to the stationery list attached. As this school promotes an electronic learning environment, with all students providing their own device, stationery items are minimal. It is important to note that there are limited additional fees for subject levies. The majority of subject levy costs are included in your Resource Scheme fee. All monies raised through this scheme are expended directly on the students of the school on an annual basis. In return for payment of the Student Resource Scheme participation fee, your student will be provided with:

· All prescribed textbooks and digital version access · Initial Photographic ID card · Use of class sets of books and resources for in-class activities · Short term loans (e.g. plays, novels, and poetry for English) · Use of reference materials · The necessary range of teacher prepared notes and/or student worksheets in all subject areas · Use of equipment, consumable materials and photocopies for a range of subjects across all year levels · Student computer printing · Qld Core Skills preparation, practice and marking (Year 11 and 12 only) · The scheme contributes to the cost of materials in the majority of practical subjects · Access to Daymap, EdPerfect, Clickview and use of a number of computer software programs

The Government supplies tuition fees and basic general foundations for the delivery of student curriculum programs. Please note, the student resource scheme fees have had the cost of the government textbook allowance deducted to reduce the total cost which parents are required to pay. The Principal may refuse to admit a student to the scheme where there are outstanding fees from previous years. A student may also be excluded from extra-curricular activities due to non-payment of the student resource scheme. If you wish to discuss your payment options, please make contact with the finance office as soon as possible. Parents who elect not to participate in the Student Resource Scheme will be required to complete and sign certification that all necessary resources listed will be provided on time for their student. Failure to provide all resources as required could negatively impact student learning outcomes.

4. The SRS enables parents to access certain resources, as detailed by the

school, for an annual fee.

5. Participation in the SRS is optional: parents are under no obligation to

participate.

Textbook and Resource Allowance (TRA)

6. The State provides the TRA annually to parents of eligible secondary

students to assist with the costs of education.

7. The TRA is paid to the school based on enrolment data and will reduce

the cost of participating in the the SRS.

Parents and Citizens’ (P&C) Association support of the SRS

Association at which the income and expenditure report is presented

18. Parents must notify the school before the invoice due date if they

intend to cease their participation in the SRS in any year.

19. Where a parent chooses to participate, they are agreeing to pay the

annual participation fee, in accordance with the payment frequency

option selected on the form. There is no provision for part-

participation.

20. All SRS resources provided for the student’s temporary use remain the

property of the school and must be returned when requested by the

school or if the student leaves the school.

21. Parents are responsible for ensuring that any SRS resources provided

an issued item is lost, not returned, or negligently damaged, parents

will be responsible for payment to the school of the value of the item

or its repair.

22. Parents must inform the school if items on the list of resources are not

received.

23. Non-payment of the participation fee by designated payment date(s)

• withhold the provision of any further items under the SRS

providing their child with all items that would otherwise be provided by the

SRS. School-produced resources (e.g. Student Diary) will be available for

separate purchase from the school for nonparticipants.

Operating the SRS

28. Schools will provide all parents with a list of resources provided by the SRS

to enable parents to assess the cost effectiveness of participation.

29. Schools will also provide non-participating parents with detailed lists of

resources to supply for their child.

30. All items included in the SRS must be able to be independently sourced by

parents who choose not to participate in the SRS, either from a third party

supplier or by purchasing a school-specific resource (such as a diary or

preceding the SRS but invoices must not be due before the end of the first

participating students with the resources and materials as outlined in the

school SRS documents.

34. SRS moneys received are to be expended only on student resources outlined

in the school’s SRS and must not be expended on other items or used to

raise funds for other purposes.

35. As the SRS operates for the benefit of participating parents and is funded

primarily from participation fees, the school retains control of the resources

and determines the rules around their availability to

nonparticipants.

36. A student entering the school during the school year is entitled to pay a pro-

rata fee to participate.

37. Where participation fees have been paid and a student leaves the school

during the year, schools must determine if parents will be eligible for a pro-

rata refund. This calculation will also take into account any pro-rata

allocation of the TRA (if eligible) and any outstanding SRS debts (including

any debts from damaged or non-returned items). Where the cost of

outstanding debts is higher than the calculated refund, parents will be liable

to pay this balance of funds.

38. The replacement cost of any resource will be up to the maximum value

(subject to depreciation where appropriate) of the acquisition cost to the

school, as detailed on the annual SRS information provided to parents.

39. Schools may initiate debt recovery action in accordance with the debt

management procedure where a parent has an outstanding debt

SPECIAL EDUCATION

PROGRAM

Creating programs for students with significant learning needs

requires access to online programs, creating individualised work

booklets and utilising many hands on materials to consolidate

educational experiences. These resources are developed based on

the individual needs of each student, and as such, costs can be quite

high. Participation in the Student Resource Scheme covers these

costs
