So my head teacher told me yesterday about an idea that school had, basically they are thinking about getting loads of iPad 2's, and letting them to students in year 11 through to year 13, basically for £10 per month, and we get to keep it, apart from I'm half way through year 11 now, so we have to pay after we leave, but we keep the iPad ;D
£360 for an iPad 2?
anyone else getting something similar done? happy

What?! What the actual fuck is going on. If people want to buy iPads and Macbooks they should buy them themselves. God I hate what government has become.

hey lets print more money and call it 'quantative easing' so no-one will suspect it unless they have a brain! and it's not like it'll effect inflation or anything..

oh wait.

I think that within 3 years teachers at our school has told us that we should be a "tablet" school so no exercise books just electronically!

I actually think this is said and proves how addicted a very large majority of today's population relies on technologies on a regular day basis. I don't want to begin a debate so I am going to stop there.

Yeah, they do macbooks for £20 a month too, but they've done that for ages O.o
also, we are paying for them ourselves, so It's not really the government money happy I thought it was school buying them, then leasing them to us, but It's not shocked It's an Apple programme they launched in October called iStudent happy

anyone who has them, are they actually useful for school? or just for playing angry birds? ;D
