iPads
All students must have an iPad and heavy duty case, both available to purchase through Wriggle. iPads purchased from Wriggle have a heavy duty case, a Managed Apple ID, Mobile Device Management (MDM) software, and three years service and support. These iPads are configured so the school can quickly push apps to the devices, manage access to school networks and control content restrictions. Towards the end of the Summer holidays, and before school starts back officially, Wriggle will host an iPad induction workshop in the school for students who purchased their iPads from Wriggle. The date of the Wriggle iPad Induction Workshop will be posted to this webpage in due course.
iPads not purchased from Wriggle will be reset, restrictions will be applied and school relevant apps will be installed. This will take place during the month of September. No service and support will be provided by the school and an administration fee of €100 will be charged for setting up the iPad. Students who did not purchase iPads from Wriggle will not attend the Wriggle iPad Induction Workshop.
