A trusted ICT partner

HP’s comprehensive range of systems
that work well in the classroom, including
Tablet PCs, space-saving compact desktops,
easy-to-manage computers featuring the
latest Intel® vPro™ technology.
• Anywhere, anytime learning. Our kit enables
schools to free education from the classroom.
• Professional Development Program
Students can use ICT on fieldtrips, at home,
in the library, wirelessly across the school
campus – wherever, whenever they need to.
Support for Computrace LoJack helps schools
reduce the risk of theft and increase the
chances of recovering stolen laptops.
•Tough and reliable. Tough and reliable HP
hardware reduces the classroom interruptions
caused by breakdowns, spills, drops and
knocks. HP designs and builds its own
computers so we can set higher standards
for reliability and construction. Many of our
laptops feature drop-resistant hard drives and
strong magnesium alloy frames, splash-resistant
keyboards and scratch-resistant surfaces.
•Teacher-friendly. Spend more time teaching
and less time getting your computer to do
what you want with teacher-friendly features
on HP computers, such as the presentation
mode button that instantly sets up your laptop
for making a presentation. Computers with
Intel® vPro™ technology let IT consultants or
technical support people fix problems quickly
by remote control.
•Safe and secure. Protect your pupils’ privacy
and avoid internet viruses and threats with
secure HP computers. Security features
include Disk Sanitizer, HP Drivelock, and
Device Access Manager. Our computers are
also available with fingerprint scanners and
smart card readers to make sure that only
authorised users can use them.
•Well-supported. HP offers easy-to-maintain
PCs with world-class warranties and local
support from expert partners. A generous
warranty with the option of additional Care
Packs for extra coverage.
•Reducing costs. HP systems can cut
the lifetime cost of owning a PC. HP’s
commitment to the environment also helps
you reduce energy costs in your school. Cut
energy costs and CO2 emissions. HP’s latest
power management features save up to 481
kWh per year per PC. That’s about a quarter
of a tonne of CO2 every year. HP Remote
Client Solutions can cut energy consumption
by up to 50% compared with conventional
desktop PCs.
•Remote Client Solutions. HP has a new way
to give teachers the power of a PC without
all the security problems and support hassle.
Processing and storage is done by a Blade
PC or a server in a locked computer room.
Teachers and students use small, quiet thin
clients with no moving parts or existing
laptops and PCs to log on. They can still
run Windows XP or Windows Vista and all
the usual programs. But the whole system is
cheaper to support, more secure and much
more reliable.
•A nationwide network of education
specialists. Our partner network can combine
HP hardware with specialist consulting,
services, support and software to deliver a
complete solution.
A company you can rely on
HP understands your concerns and budget pressures
as well as the needs of teachers, students and
administrators. With a full range of products,
services and support, HP is the education partner
you can count on.
