iPad Parental Contribution Scheme

Author Profile
11 June 2025

Miss C Blair

All secondary students at XP are expected to bring in a school-managed iPad every day, giving them access to Google Docs, iMovie, GarageBand and Adobe Creative Cloud apps alongside many other school purchased apps. To enable this, we run a great value Parental Contribution Scheme which offers all our parents affordable options to provide the latest iPad with a keyboard case and trackpad, screen protector and pencil plus AppleCare. The total cost for this in 2025/26 is £455, and parents can spread this cost over up to 36 months, or less than £3 per week. To order your child’s ipad, please click on the Order Form below:  Order form Any parents needing financial support can let us know on the order form so we can look at different options together.

The iPad scheme includes;

  • iPad 128GB, with charger
  • Logitech keyboard case with trackpad
  • Skriva Stylus
  • Tempered glass screen protector
  • AppleCare + for two years 
  • Jamf device management and security
  • Adobe Creative Cloud apps + more

Warranties and insurance

The extended warranty is covered by Apple for the first two years. You handle your own claims through Apple Support on the App Store. Further information can be found at AppleCare Products – iPad – Apple (UK)  We supply an initial glass screen protector, then any replacement screen protectors required will need to be purchased by you. Apple charges £25 for a broken screen. Loss or theft of the iPad should be covered by your personal home insurance.

Costs

The total retail cost of these items bought separately would be £595.00.  Through our purchase scheme the cost to you is £455.00.  

Payment options

  • £455.00 as a one-off payment
  • £37.92 per month for 12 months (£8.75 per week)
  • £18.96 per month for 24 months (£4.38 per week)
  • £12.64 per month for 36 months (£2.92 per week)
If you require financial support with this, please highlight this on the form when placing your order and we will get in touch with you. If your child will be in Year 10, the maximum option you can choose will be the 24 month option. If your child will be in Year 11, the maximum option you can choose will be the 12 month option. The balance will be applied to your ParentPay account for you to manage your own payments.  This will be closely monitored by the school in line with XP Trust Credit Control Policy to ensure payments are on track, depending on the payment option you selected. We encourage you to ensure timely payments to avoid any disruptions in your child’s access to the device. If your circumstances change, and you can no longer afford to contribute the agreed payment option please contact us, and we will work with you on a revised payment plan. At the end of your child’s time in school the device can be kept by the family if the balance has been paid in full.

Phoenix Dance Theatre Project 2025

Author Profile
25 May 2025

Shannon Mitchell

This week, we had the fantastic opportunity to welcome Phoenix Dance Theatre back into school to work with some of our students — and what a brilliant start it was!

We kicked off the session by getting to know each other and meeting our inspiring instructor, Emma, who brought great energy and expertise to the room. From there, we moved onto contemporary dance technique, focusing on fluidity and using our whole bodies to express movement.

The students then explored their creativity through collaborative tasks, experimenting with intricate shapes and physical storytelling with their peers. We wrapped up by reflecting on the idea of community — sharing thoughts on what it means to us to be a part of a community and how we might bring this theme to life through movement.

We’re already excited for our next session, where we’ll begin shaping our final performance piece for the XP Arts Festival in July. Watch this space — something special is in the making!
