Do we need an Apple iPad – why not an Android Tablet?

Unley High School runs a successful Apple iPad Program in the Middle School. An Android Tablet will not work for this program or at our school. Students who bring Android Tablets will be asked to bring an Apple iPad instead.

What are the Minimum iPad requirements?

Do we need to download the Apps that cost money?

You can wait for these apps to be used in class, but teachers may expect these apps to be ready for class.

Sim Cards?

Mobile phones are not allowed in classrooms and neither are sim cards in student iPads.
