<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Hi Charmaine,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>At my current school (And
previous school), both purchased trolleys to store the laptops. There are
specially designed trolleys that allow for recharging points and security when
finished. There are quite a few companies that make them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Our library have about 26 on
each trolley (A class set), and loan them out through “BookIt”, so it’s just
like booking a computer room. A students will be sent over at the start of
class to collect them, and they return them at the end of the class. They are
then checked so that none are missing and all still functional etc and stored
in a secure room. To avoid any potential security problems, my old school did
the same thing with loaning them out, but classes could only use them within
the library so they could be monitored more closely. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Neither has allowed students to
borrow the laptops individually. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I think laptop management has
become a much bigger issue since the Digital Revolution Grant which didn’t
initially allow for infrastructure so schools without spare buildings, cabling,
desks, network infrastructure or even enough space purchased laptops instead.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
