Hi All,
It’s a huge week for Apple Education. Here are resources for iOS 9.3 and OS X 10.11.4.
As always, if you have any questions about deploying Apple devices in Education, don’t hesitate to give me a call or drop me an email. I love talking about this stuff!
We’re making Apple devices as easy to deploy as they are to use

Classroom
—
Available for free in the app store, Classroom is a powerful new iPad app that helps teachers guide learning, share work, and manage student devices.
Classroom requires a supporting MDM to function. Without an MDM configuration, upon launch Classroom will present an an error message indicating “Classroom must be configured using an education configuration profile..." Ask your MDM vendor if they support Classroom.

Finally, I will leave you with the iOS deployment framework that I recommend for all school owned devices, and all instructionally required apps. This is a fun conversation to have around a whiteboard, and I’d love to come by and do that with you. Please test, demo, develop, and certify that this recommendation makes sense for your devices and production cycle before deploying!
