Are you prepared for the device mix that will land with the new school year?

The back to school period is busy and exciting for students and teachers alike but also a time of spending for parents. A new pair of shoes, a new bag as the other one they wouldn’t be seen dead in, and of course the various sporting and musical equipment needed.

But what about a Laptop, or tablet? A new phone? or Chromebook to access all their homework wherever they can get online? The parameters of the back to school experience have changed, and as well as parents and educators the digital classroom itself must prepare for this flurry of students, tech and device mix that lands with the new term.

Schools need to address whether they have the storage infrastructure for an ever inflating number of devices. As the ratio between students and devices reduces, physical storage of devices will become extremely important in effectively managing this year’s new students, curriculum and devices. Fit for purpose storage and charging must be implemented to support the variety of brands and operating systems as well as one which can scale appropriately to the student-device ratio, from 1:1, 2:1, BYOD and so on. After all what use is a great new tablet if the battery is flat?

This is why at LapCabby we develop future proofed store, charge and sync solutions – to deliver classroom ready devices and support the digital curriculum, every time. (And always with our lifetime product warranty!)

And we’re here to simplify Back to School with our Class of 2016
