How Liko-School uses Jamf School to maximize the value of Apple technology and become a digital learning leader

The Technological Liko-School in Kyiv is a modern educational institution that is one of the top 10 innovative schools in Ukraine. It employs 120 highly-qualified educators, teaching more than 700 children with modern European-focused teaching methods. Also called ‘The Lyceum’, the school has ambitious goals to become a center of expertise for innovation using the most progressive methods and technologies. Because of their well-established benefits in education, this includes the use of Apple iPad devices, Apple TV and iMac devices in the classroom and labs.

Digital Learning with personal iPads

To turn the classroom system into a fascinating learning environment, Liko-School combines a variety of technologies with an innovative curriculum. Starting from the first grade, children acquire knowledge in a digital learning environment – all using personal devices. In 2018, the school organized specialized classes and laboratories based on iPad and iMac devices for a wide range of subjects, namely: Programming, Biotechnology and Medicine, Engineering and Design as well as Construction and Architecture.Today, Liko-School’s students and teachers use more than 400 iPad devices, 40 Apple TVs and 20 iMac devices. The 1:1 iPad program allowed the students to process large amounts of information and made the transition to distance learning during COVID-19 easy. Once the number of devices increased to 400 units, the school faced the challenge of increasing costs for IT maintenance. It became necessary to optimize the management of the Apple devices and to find an effective solution. Liko-School has chosen the market leader, Jamf School.

Quick deployment of hundreds of iPads

Jamf School allowed the quick deployment of hundreds of iPads in only five days, managing the entire school's Apple fleet in just one click. The built-in apps Jamf School Student, Jamf Teacher for Jamf School and Jamf Parent for Jamf School allow all groups of users from students to teachers and even parents to have control over devices and learning progress. Jamf School was mainly used to:

  • customize tablets
  • distribute applications
  • regulate access to educational content

For me as a school CIO, is very important that Jamf School allows us to configure hundreds of tablets, install applications, make restrictions and to enables the student to focus on their school work. Also important is the safety of children on the internet. Jamf School offers services to regulate access to the content on student devices.
