Prime Schools and Prime Schools PLUS programs
For over a decade CASIO Education has been supporting teachers and students to ensure the optimal use of its products, currently the CASIO fx-82AU PLUS II, CASIO fx-100AU PLUS, CASIO fx-9860G AU PLUS and the CASIO ClassPad II (fx-CP400).
The support has included:
- Hundreds of free face-to-face workshops
- Freely available classroom materials
- Phone and online assistance
- The establishment of the very popular Lead School and Top School Programs
In our on-going efforts to better serve our schools, it is with great pleasure we introduce two new Australia-wide school support programs,
the Prime Schools and Prime Schools PLUS program.
Both are free to join and each provides excellent support.
The Prime Schools program is free to join and supports teachers and students in schools that use the fx-82AU PLUS II, fx-100AU PLUS, fx-9860G AU PLUS or ClassPad II (fx-CP400) as their technology of choice.
Schools that are currently members of the Top School and Lead School programs will automatically become members of the Prime School program.
The Prime Schools PLUS program offers a greater level of support and is for schools that booklist one or more of the CASIO fx-82AU PLUS II, CASIO fx-100AU PLUS, CASIO fx-9860G AU PLUS and the CASIO ClassPad II (fx-CP400).
To join, the school is required to provide evidence of booklisting, in the form of the school's current booklist or a letter, signed by the Head Of Mathematics (or equivalent), stating that the school booklists one or more of the CASIO fx-82AU PLUS II, CASIO fx-100AU PLUS, CASIO fx-9860G AU PLUS and the CASIO ClassPad II (fx-CP400).
