Mobile App for Schools:

The App allows the education admin and / or parent of the student to manage how the device and user will behave during –  lesson time, break time, study time and home time. This ensures the devices are only being used for educational purposes during educational times and deliver a safer more cocooned experience in free time to ensure students are not exposed to content they should not be exposed to. This is achieved by allowing admins to block apps and websites as per their IT usage policies. It also allows admins to control what apps can be used at what times to ensure for example students do not WhatsApp each other during class or play games on the device whilst a lesson is in progress. These devices therefore become a solid learning aid and not a nuisance for teachers, a distraction for learners and a point of concern for parents where students gain access to information via the device the parent does not want them to gain access to.
