A Guide for School Leaders

iPad is designed for learning. It provides access
to relevant and engaging content as well as
powerful apps that help unleash the unique
genius in all learners. This document provides
an overview of the advantages of implementing
iPad as the device for Personalised Digital
Learning Programme (PDLP) at your school.

Apple’s commitment to innovation in learning
For more than 40 years, Apple has worked alongside educators
to help them ignite the creative potential in every student — not
only with innovative products, but also with tools, inspiration
and curricula to help create powerful learning experiences.

Why iPad
iPad is as versatile as it is portable, which means students can take it wherever they want to learn — in the classroom or the
hallway, out on a field trip and all the places in between. With free creativity and productivity apps from Apple and a wide
range of other education apps available on the App Store, iPad can become anything students need it to be: a camera, a
recording studio, a notebook or a sketchbook. And with augmented reality, it’s even a gateway to a historical site on the other
side of the world or outer space.
