BYOD Chromebook - Set up instructions Year 4
Dear Parents,
Thank you for providing your student with a Chromebook for their learning.
In order for the Chromebook to be used at school, please set up the following:
- Personal Account
We recommend parents to sign into the Chromebook using a personal account first. It can be their own account, or the account they created for the student.
The first account will automatically be the owner account of that device. By doing so, the family will still have full access when they can't access their school account.
- School Account
Once the Chromebook is set up with a personal account being the owner, please add the student school account as a user. Please do this at home.
The student needs to use their school account to sign into the Chromebook. In this case, the student account is still managed by CE, but the device isn't.

Your child has a record of their school account. It is in the form of their school email address
Eg. mrobin02@cgstudents.catholic.edu.au and a password they nominated with their teacher. For Year 4 students, this password has been changed this year to something they nominated.
If parents would like to apply extra supervision, they can set up Family Link.
However, at this stage CECG ICT are not in the position of supporting parents with Family Link on BYO devices. Some information and instructions are below:
