Shore Years 7-11 2024 resource lists are now online for student ordering

Dear Parents

Shore is transitioning to digital textbooks.

Following the successful implementation of our digital device programme for all students in the Senior School this year, the next step is to transition to digital textbooks. This will commence in 2024 when, in most instances, digital textbooks will be the default option. This decision was made after careful consideration of the benefits and drawbacks of both hard copy and digital textbooks.

Hard copies of textbooks will still be available for parents and students who would like a hard copy in addition to the digital version. In class, however, we expect that all students will have a digital copy available to them.

The opportunity to purchase digital textbooks for 2024 is now available through the Campion website using this LINK.

There will be a limited stock of second-hand (hard copy) textbooks available for purchase this year on the following dates:

·        Year 10 and 11:	Friday 24 November
·        Year 8 and 9:	Thursday 30 November
·        Year 7:	Friday 1 December

The School will no longer purchase hard copies of second-hand textbooks, given the transition to digital textbooks.

Textbook donations
While Shore is transitioning to digital textbooks, we are aware of some schools that will still be using hard-copy texts. In support of this, the SPA will be collecting donations of current textbooks to gift to students where there is a need.

Sincerely

Mr M Leeds
Deputy Head Academic
