Marcus Wilkinson, Head of Boarding at Peace Lutheran College, explains how the ForwardPass Smart Lockers has helped them secure devices and solve the issue of boarding students turning up to class with uncharged devices.
The ForwardPass Smart Locker has helped resolve a number of issues the school was facing such as uncharged devices, lost locks and keys, insecure location and storage of devices and many more. The ForwardPass Smart Locker has enabled the IT department to allocate a locker to each student and linking the locker to a students existing student card. This means that only the student and admin have access to their locker.
“The ForwardPass Smart Locker has made our lives a lot easier. Being able to customize the times in which kids have access. Being able to give us a place where safely and securely the children can store their devices and all those [other] items.”
