1:1 mobile device deployment in a school

Abdul Chohan, Director, Essa Academy discusses the impact and results of school wide 1:1 deployment of iPod touch and iPad devices to every student and staff member.

The creativity that that has been inspired by the use of this technology has been amazing. Staff and students are able to have seamless communication that allows learning conversations to develop and feedback to be of a higher quality as well as being personalised.

The technology has been an enabler of transformation and has also contributed to our vision of the new build that has recently commenced.
