I saw the programme about that scam, one school ended up paying about a quarter of a million pound for one photocopier that should have only cost £1700 |

IF a school insists it's children have i-pads at school, they should either do what Rose's daughter's school does, or buy in bulk from a reputable firm at a reducton (definitely not a cold caller or travelling salesman), loan to those unwilling to buy,or sell at the (reduced) price they paid. |

I agree Sue, I have read of many students with autism also benefiting greatly from having an ipad for various reasons. |
