Dear Parents
Your son/daughter is taking the Media Studies course and will need the use of
digital cameras for recording coursework. If your child wishes to use their own
device for their studies this is encouraged, however the School can provide a
small number of Canon D80 cameras for loan through a booking system,
authorised by the Head of Department. These cameras are available for limited
periods only and are strictly monitored by the Finance Department.

Cameras are supplied with a case, lens and batteries and all of this must be
returned. Each camera must be checked in and out of School in person and any
loss or damage or resulting in the impaired use of the device could be charged at
full cost, currently £700 per unit. I hope you appreciate that we have to have
such control measures in place to secure the School’s assets.
The process will be that Amina Choudhury, the Bursary Secretary will email you
when your child has signed out the camera, so that you are aware, and also let
you know when it has to be returned. We obviously want the pupils themselves
to take responsibility for this but we also want you to be aware due to the
potential financial implications.
If your child will be loaning a School camera and you agree to the terms above
please return a signed copy of this consent form. If you do not agree and do not
want your child to borrow the cameras, please email Amina to let her know on
bursarysecretary@aldenham.com.
Yours sincerely
Sharon Toye
Director of Finance
