Think ahead has to be the best company to turn to if you are looking for anything Apple. Not only do they supply you with fantastic products and a great price but they are always willing to go the extra mile to help with any query or product you may need. I would recommend Think Ahead to any school looking to introduce Apple products to their school with a seamless and pleasant experience.

Brilliant system of support
Real ICT Integration, iPad deployment, management and support, Coding camps, Teacher training, Think Ahead
I’ve been working alongside the people from Thinkahead since 2013 and they’ve been brilliant in not only providing us with products but also with hands-on practical training that’s helped me to grow as an educator. They have given me support so that I could become confident as my skills as an educator leveled up. It’s so much more than a product or a service, it’s a long-lasting relationship towards educational transformation. Highly recommend.

Sales and Service
Real ICT Integration, iPad deployment, management and support, Coding camps, Teacher training, Think Ahead
This company offers very competitive prices on Apple products and peripherals. They have an excellent "but-back" option, which is critical for schools. Their after sales service is excellent and they are continually in touch with the school to offer their services in the form of training or just coming in to 'help' when the teachers are experiencing difficulties.
They also offer some free and other paid professional learning opportunities at their premises and at different schools to minimize traveling time for teachers.
Annually, they host a competition for excellence in education in which both children and teachers have the opportunity to win outstanding prizes. The children in my school love attending the holiday courses that they run in coding and robotics. An excellent company overall!

iPad Training

Think Ahead provide excellent iPad training for all of our staff. Teachers were enthused and excited to use the iPads after the training session and through their training the use of iPads has become and important part of our weekly school timetable. I would thoroughly recommend them.

Our journey with Thinkahead
Real ICT Integration, iPad deployment, management and support, Coding camps, Teacher training, Think Ahead
Our relationship with Thinkahead started at the beginning of 2014 when they offered us 5 iPads for our teachers to trial. The trial involved some training sessions and 3 months access to iPads. We never looked back. The company have been alongside us as we researched further and finally decided on a system that suits our school. The service, backup, training and advice they offer has been really professional. We have hosted and attended many of their workshops which have always been presented by experienced and interesting presenters . Think ahead have definitely made our journey into technology much easier. We look forward to working with them in the future.

We have enjoyed the relaxed and accommodating nature of the Think Ahead staff. They constantly challenge us to get involved in various projects and workshops, all of which have been of enormous benefit to our staff and pupils. Regular emails and postings via various social media platforms ensure we stay on top of our game as far as the latest training and product offerings are concerned. I have loved the way they look at teachers as developers and experts in their field, drawing on experience in the classroom to guide training and workshop sessions.

iPad Summit 2016

Through the iPad Summit Think Ahead presented a great platform for the discussion of the current 'Learning Revolution'. The many talks and workshops presented practical examples and constructive advice on key apps that support the development of 'how' and 'why' in learning. Think Ahead is a company that is in tune with developments in education and presents stimulating platforms for networking and discussion and professional technical support in this area.

Awesome!

ThinkAhead understands teachers and the school environment. Their courses are appropriate and realistic and their guest speakers are inspirational and informative. Michelle and Lulu are readily available to answer any questions and offer sound advice. It is always a pleasure dealing with ThinkAhead and I would recommend them for all iOS ICT integration requirements.

Over the past 6 years I have had the opportunity to work with the team at ThinkAhead.
Real ICT Integration, iPad deployment, management and support, Coding camps, Teacher training, Think Ahead
It started with a purchase of a set of iPad 1's for my school and has grown into a partnership of respect and mutual understanding. ThinkAhead, or rather the people at ThinkAhead, has/have become trusted advisors, sometime employers, brainstorm partners and friends.
The team has provided opportunities for the teachers at my school, and me personally, to advance our understanding of technology in the classroom and in the broader education sphere. From free weekly, focussed sessions to a very successful iPad summit and now with Apple Education training with every purchase the breadth of their offering continues to expand.
I have no doubt that they would provide the same, personalised, experience to every school they supply, support and encourage.

Thank You Think Ahead!

Auckland Park Preparatory is a progressive private school for Girls. We pride ourselves in keeping up to date with the trends in education. The extremely daunting task of an 'iPad roll out' has been made so easy by the support that we have had from Think Ahead. Their on going training of our staff, their help and advice in implementing banks of devices and the introduction and control of our 1 to 1 programme has been invaluable. We certainly could not have done it without Think Ahead!

Staff at different levels of ability were trained on how to integrate iPad teaching into the classroom. To use the devise not to be paper behind the screen, but to be a valuable teaching and learning tool.
