Tablets for teaching, Apple TV in the classroom – centrally managed
Classroom tablets, teacher devices, administration smartphones, and Apple TV for presentations: With Cortado MDM, you set up all devices centrally, protect student data, and keep operations stable throughout the school year.
WHAT CORTADO OFFERS
More time for teaching. Less effort with devices.
Digital devices have long been part of everyday life in schools and universities. Cortado MDM brings setup, data protection, app distribution, and presentation technology together in one place – clearly and without specialist knowledge.
SETUP
Set up classroom sets quickly and without manual work
New tablets set themselves up the first time they are turned on and arrive at school fully configured – no one has to tap through device by device.
- Devices start fully set up, including Wi-Fi and apps
- Device groups by class, department, or location
- Provide replacement devices in minutes instead of hours
SHARED DEVICES
Shared classroom devices: the same state every lesson
One tablet, many hands: Only the apps needed for class are visible. Every lesson starts from the same state – without anyone having to clean up beforehand.
- Limit devices to the required apps and content
- Automatically reset to the initial state after class
- Clear rules for checkout and return
DATA PROTECTION
Protect student data and meet data protection requirements
Student and teacher data needs to be protected. Cortado ensures that school information stays in a secured area and that private use remains clearly separated.
- Separate work area, also on teachers’ personal devices
- No access to private content or locations
- Hosting in Germany and data processing under the EU GDPR
LEARNING APPS
Centrally deliver learning apps and content to the right devices
Learning software, reference materials, forms, and textbooks are automatically delivered to the devices of the right class or group – without anyone having to install them manually.
- Distribute apps and updates without teacher intervention
- Make content and documents available offline too
- Centrally define app permissions and settings
APPLE TV IN THE CLASSROOM
Centrally provide Apple TV in the classroom
Present without cables: Apple TV is managed together with iPads and Android devices in the same interface – from Wi-Fi access to remote resets.
- Centrally define Wi-Fi access, apps, and settings
- Prevent sign-in with personal Apple Accounts
- Remotely reset devices in classrooms and presentation rooms
SCHOOL YEAR TRANSITION
Reset and reassign devices in line with the school year cycle
At the end of the school year, devices are collected, reset, and reassigned – centrally from the console instead of handling each device one by one.
- Reset devices in bulk and assign them to new classes
- Keep track of lost or damaged devices at any time
- Keep inventory and assignments documented
