  • Educational organisations are using smart lockers to loan devices out to students such as laptops/tablets. 

  • Following recent guidance from the Department of Education, schools are beginning to ban mobile phones on campus, creating the need for a secure storage solution. 

  • Educational organisations can use smart lockers to reserve storage spaces for students to securely store their personal items and devices. 

  • MSPs (Managed Service Providers) are recognising the value of smart lockers and actively helping educational institutions integrate, manage, and optimise them for secure, efficient campus solutions.
