A number of parents of year 9 students who were promised to receive laptops under the federal government laptop program have contacted Carenne Gate asking for an investigation into where their children's laptops are.
The operation of the federal laptop program at Carenne has been criticised, following allegations that Michael Auld intended on changing what the school applied for last year without consultation and efforts by Auld to have parents agree to their child not receiving a laptop but instead agree to the school purchasing software which would be kept by the school.
Despite Auld telling parents at a meeting held for parents with students going into year 9 last year that if they wanted they would receive a laptop, several year 9 parents have contacted Carenne Gate to report that their children have not received their computer.
Neil Moon as the school principal should immediately advise parents on where the laptop program is up to and explain why parents have not received their child's laptop.
