i-Pad Apps for Education
iPad apps which support learning. Apps are free (when I last checked) unless otherwise stated. Prices often change so double-check before purchasing. For bulk purchases for schools volume discounts will usually be available. I am still adding apps and information to this site so check back regularly. Free apps may contain in-app purchases and/or advertising. Preview before using with young learners.

Visit this webpage to download a Word version of the application so you can prepare a draft application ready to submit to the new online PLD application site. N.B. ios 11 was a major upgrade and some older apps will no longer work in ios 11 and above. I have marked these with an asterisk* where I have found them. I have also tried to locate alternatives where possible. Some newer apps will only work in ios 11 and above.
