At Margaret River SHS our vision is to use technology to enhance teaching and learning across the school. The Library Information Technology Centre provides information and communication technology support for our students and staff.

We use technology as a tool to transform the learning experience, increase student engagement, and improve outcomes. Our BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) program supports this vision by giving students access to enriched learning opportunities and access to an array of resources including Stile, Mathspace, SmartLab, Compass and Office 365.
