[Year 12 IT Apps] Windows 8.1

[Van Der Westhuizen, Eugene Y]

Hi Leanne,

I believe this is happening, presumably as a Department directive. I found out by accident when I saw all the computer lab computers with Windows 8.1 on them. A few of us will be trialling the new OS on our laptops over the holidays with a view to changing all staff laptops over during next year.

Thanks,
Eugene Van der Westhuizen

Subject: [Year 12 IT Apps] Windows 8.1

I have been informed by our computer manager that the Department has mandated the use of the above operating system on all school computers including those in classrooms. As I have not been shown the communication from the Department which states this, could someone please tell me if this is the case.

Thanks in advance - Leanne Wright
