Guided Access on the iPad

Lots of our pupils love to keep pressing the home button when what yo really want is them to work on the app you have selected. Click below for an easy guide to Guided Access. This prevents them from continually exiting the app until you unlock the screen again. It is widely used in school and can help them stay focussed for longer.
