PLD Procurement

The Personalised Digital Learning Programme (PDLP) for all secondary school students requires every student to own a school-prescribed Personal Learning Device (PLD).
BVSS has selected the Chromebook model Lenovo 500e Gen 4 as its PLD offering . The device comes with 3 years of warranty and insurance coverage. It offers superb value for money and will provide students with many good years of learning and productivity.

Important Actions For Parents (Sec 1 2024)
Please complete the application form through the FormSG link provided through Parents Gateway or you may click here by 14 January 2024 to ensure that the procurement process could go according to schedule. When filling up the form, please ensure you enter your child's/ward's full name, NRIC and class correctly.
Intent to Purchase PLD
Edusave Withdrawal
Authorisation to collect PLD
Parents/Guardians without a Singpass account may request for a hardcopy letter from your child’s/ward’s Form Teacher or from the school’s General Office.
The school encourages parents to authorise the option for students to collect the device, so that your child/ward can collect it together with his/her classmates in school.
Should you have a change in your email address, do update it in the Parents Gateway(PG) app. Information on the registration for the DMA will be sent via PG on a later date.
Financial Assistance
Subsidies are available to students who require financial assistance. Singapore Citizens who are already on MOE FAS or School-based FAS will automatically qualify for these subsidies and do not need to take any action.
Permanent Residents (PR) and International Students (IS) who need support can apply for subsidies, particularly those whose Gross Household Income (GHI) is below $4400 or Per Capita Income (PCI) is below $1100. If your child qualifies for a subsidy, please submit this form to the General Office by 8 Jan 2024.
