Empower your educators with Apple Professional Learning
Apple Professional Learning, or APL is a tailored form of CPD that’ll cover topics your teachers and technicians will benefit from at a level and pace designed for them. We offer a “standard” APL course called "Planning Essentials". We highly recommend it for schools who want to get started with a plan to deploy many Apple devices in their learning environment.
Apple Professional Learning sessions can also be tailored to cover a whole host of training needs. One of BT's Apple Education Specialists will match you with the best trainer for your needs.

Apple Classroom
Apple Classroom is a powerful tool to enhance learning and guide students through lessons. It helps teachers manage their classroom and support their pupils' learning. With options to lock and mute all iPads in the classroom, teachers have control over when the iPads are used. There’re also ways to personalise learning by setting up groups to enable collaborative working.
- Launch a specific app or webpage on all or some devices
- Help students stay on task by locking them in one or a couple of apps
- Use Screen View to see what students are working on
- Navigate to specific content
- Reset student passwords from your app
- Share content on your iPad by using Classroom with Apple TV
- Student work is synced at log out and ready for your next lesson
Mobile Device Management
An MDM will enable you to integrate your DEP, ASM and VPP all in one location. It supports 1:1 device roll-outs, including supporting a BYOD strategy. And it’ll help you unify the way your devices look and operate. Whichever MDM solution you choose, it’ll help you structure the design of your Apple Classroom roll-out to make it even easier to manage.
Mobile Device Management is recommended for schools who have, or are planning a large device roll-out. MDM solutions are particularly beneficial to multi-academy trusts, because you can centrally manage all your devices, whilst still being able to create a more personal profile for each school. BT offers a range of MDM solutions, and our Apple Education Specialists will help you choose the most appropriate approach for the needs of your school.
Manage the devices
Streamline admin tasks:
- Easy remote distribution of Apps, iBooks and course materials
- Restrictions help maintain the iPads as required
- Set up Wi-Fi, VPN and email with ease
- Create classroom lessons
- Assign devices as shared or 1:1
Monitor your deployment
Clear visibility of the device activity:
- Clear view of workflow command progress

Secure controls
Ensure safe administration:
- Devices are initially set up with a suitable level of governance
