A guide for parents
10thGen_FF iPad
A better world starts in the classroom with
flexible, easy-to-use tools that have privacy, accessibility and
sustainability built right in. iPad is designed to make learning personal,
creative and inspiring.
It’s a versatile learning tool, which empowers children to learn where, when
and how they want to.
Empower children today to prepare them for tomorrow
Build confidence.
iPad can help enhance children’s creativity, ideation and communication skills
to build confidence. With the Clips app, they can capture moments and get
creative using Memoji and augmented reality effects.
Keep their thoughts
free flowing.
Designed for freedom of expression and movement, iPad is ready to capture the
brightest ideas. And Apple Pencil empowers your child to bring learning to
life or channel their inner artist. Apple Pencil can be a pen, a paintbrush
and more — perfect for drawing, note-taking, sketching observations and
annotating. It can even turn handwriting into text using Scribble.
iPad supports Singapore’s art syllabus that focuses on drawing to enable children to express ideas visually.
Support learning with iPad.
Up to 10 hours of battery life and a thin and light design allow learning with
iPad to happen anywhere, all day long.
With amazing free apps and advanced built-in technologies, iPad gives children
the power to create anything they dream up. Yet it’s so intuitive, they can
immediately take an idea and run with it.
Built to last.
iPad is incredibly thin and weighs about a pound, so it’s light enough to move
wherever learning is happening.
It features a durable aluminium unibody construction that’s built to handle
the rigours of daily use. And with an enclosure made from 100 percent recycled
aluminium, iPad is also better for the environment.
Unrivalled versatility.
iPad empowers children and teachers to learn and teach where, when and how
they want to. With built-in tools for creativity and collaboration, iPad can
become anything children and teachers need it to be: a camera, a recording
studio, a notebook, a sketchbook and much more. Powerful productivity.
The powerful A14 Bionic chip gives children exceptional performance and
responsiveness to create amazing things on iPad. Built-in apps for learning
and creating take everyday tasks to the next level, while education apps in
the App Store take learning even further.
Seamless compatibility.
iPad is the perfect device for the apps and workflows your child depend on,
including Google Workspace for Education, Microsoft 365, Singapore Student
Learning Space (SLS) and many of today’s common learning management systems.
And the Files app on iPad makes it easy to access files from USB drives and
cloud services all in one place.
Intuitive interface.
From the moment children pick up an iPad, they’re readyto make things happen
by tapping, swiping, dragging and dropping. Multi-Touch is a profoundly
immersive andresponsive experience that fully engages children of all learning
styles in what they’re doing. Connect with the world.
Augmented reality (AR) on iPad can transform how children learn about and
connect with the world around them. They can explore outer space, immerse
themselves in the wonders of the world and examine art and historical
artefacts from national museums — in any learning environment.
Apple technology is responsibly designed for the future.
And for learning in the classroom.
Privacy
We believe privacy is a fundamental human right, in and out of the classroom.
With Apple, you can trust that your child’s data is secure. And we don’t sell
your child’s information or share it with third parties to use for marketing.

Engage early learners with iPad.
The use of technology for your youngest learners should be intentional and
natural for them. It should also be age appropriate and meet the ability of
each child.
Intentional
Educators use iPad to inspire creativity and create powerful, hands-on
learning experiences for primary learners. Many schools are seeing great
results by providing intentional and focused learning experiences on iPad.
Natural
iPad is versatile. And when it’s used the way children learn naturally, it
supports all types of learning. Its multimodal interface makes it familiar and
easy to use with just a touch, a word or a movement.
Appropriate
Using materials on iPad that are age and ability appropriate, children can
engage in deeper, more meaningful learning experiences. And features on iPad
support a wide range of learning styles and needs, so all children can learn
and create in ways that work best for them.
Five tips to manage screen time.
Screen Time includes features that are great for helping you choose how — and
how often — your child uses their device.
Get involved in your child’s learning.
Studies have shown that parents’ active engagement through watching and
interacting with children while they use technology can lead to greater
learning outcomes. Encouraging children to make realworld connections to what
they’re watching and doing can further enhance their learning
experience.
