Shared iPad in your Classroom
Shared iPad is a fantastic solution for schools that want to provide increased access to teaching and learning in a safe digital environment, supported by the iPad.
​
For many schools, Shared iPad becomes the first realistic step into classroom technology, especially where budgets are tight and device numbers are limited.
​
Schools already using iPads, but without one for every pupil, can adopt Shared iPad to take the next step toward safe, secure digital learning and unlock powerful teaching and learning benefits that come with Shared iPad.
​
Schools planning to implement a 1:1 iPad model as part of their digital learning vision can use Shared iPad as a transitional approach that allows 1:1 teaching and learning practices to be modelled effectively, preparing both students and teachers for their digital future.
