Team Up With Teachers for Routine iPad iOS Maintenance: Together, We Keep Student and Teacher Devices Protected! 
 
Teachers are not only the head of the classroom, but often the “gatekeepers” of in-class C3 IGNITE iPads. We recommend you work with your staff to establish a regular routine of charging, cleaning, inspecting devices, reporting lost or damaged devices, and updating iOS regularly when updates are available from Apple. 
 
Apple's latest iPadOS 17.4 offers several layers of security that are essential to end-user protection. For Generation 5 and iPad PRO devices, Apple offers iOS 16.7.6. Click here to access more information on the latest iOS updates.
 
Do you need help with what you should be doing and how to stay on track? Check out our Device Management Schedule (click here), which is our comprehensive guide that outlines daily, weekly, and monthly tasks, crucial for maintaining top-notch devices in the hands of your students.
