Technology has a major role to play in learning and in preparing students for the careers they will be responsible for in the future - a future where 65% of jobs they will apply for do not exist today.* Apple devices give students the freedom to explore and express new ideas, and learn the essential life skills children need. This spans from creativity and teamwork, to critical thinking and problem solving. The curriculum programs available across the Apple device portfolio have been specifically designed with the classroom in mind by educators, parents, artists, musicians and photographers.
We know that when introducing technology into the classroom, it’s imperative that both teachers and parents feel confident that devices are going to be used as they are intended to be. Every Apple product is built with an integrated approach to privacy and security – providing schools with devices, apps and services that keep student data and personal information secure. Apple services and apps for education are built with the same integrated approach to privacy that’s fundamental to the design of all Apple hardware, software and services. With Managed Apple IDs, your school controls student information and can choose to enable or disable apps and services such as iMessage and FaceTime. To ensure that schools providing devices to students are only enabling use for the purpose of education, Apple devices disable certain features and functions of Managed Apple IDs. You can have full peace of mind when it comes to putting Apple devices in the hands of children.
Teachers need access to tools that can help them to streamline their workflow and reduce their overall workload. Tools that can provide instant feedback on schoolwork, guide students through a lesson and keep the class focused on the task, as well as share information and documents with pupils, staff and parents across the school. By adopting the right technologies and use of the right apps, you can finally focus on what’s most important: teaching. Apple Technology has also been designed to equip students with future-proof skills, ready for life beyond the classroom.Find out more about the Everyone Can Create and Everyone Can Code initiatives, and how Apple devices can help reduce your workload.

You want your children to have the best possible education and reach their full potential. Alongside that, you’ll want peace of mind that the technology your children are using inside and outside of school is safe. There are so many features on Apple devices that empower you, as a parent, to take control of how and when devices are used. You can create app limits, monitor and control their screen time, choose who your children communicate with throughout the day, and make sure they are only looking at child-friendly content. Find out more about the different features available to you as a parent.
Apple Devices empower every type of learner by hosting a combination of multimedia materials; animation with narration, to images with text embedded, are providing a multitude of benefits.
These less formal ways of working and conversational learning are proving effective not just in the SEN space, but in mainstream education via interactive learning methodologies.
