Laptop Computer Program
In 1995, Ballarat Clarendon College started a laptop computer program.
Students starting Year 7 in 1995 were required to lease or buy a laptop from the school's provider, Computelec; the school later expanded this program to include students from Year 5.
Students are required to have a supplied laptop computer until Year 9, after which they are permitted to bring any laptop of their choice.
