Students have accidents, and by proxy, so do their essential tools. This is especially true when it comes to laptops, which, due to their portability, are susceptible to damage from varying conditions – whether that’s in the schoolyard, between classes, or at home.

This whitepaper acts as a guide for principals or heads of IT on the topic of accidental damage.

It discusses some of the challenges schools and students face in these situations and provides expert advice on managing them effectively.

Importantly, it includes some best practices on preventing and limiting laptop damage, starting from the point of purchase.
