84 iPads Repaired On-Site in 96 Hours

A Special Educational Needs (SEN) Primary School in Richmond, South West London needed urgent iPad repairs. For SEN settings, iPads arenโ€™t optional โ€” theyโ€™re fundamental to learning, communication, routine, and pupil support. We restored 84 school iPads on-site to minimise downtime and protect sensitive data.

The challenge

The schoolโ€™s iPads are used daily for learning and structured support. A high number of devices developed faults including cracked screens, LCD issues, and home button problems. With a mixed SEN environment, technology downtime can impact learning and classroom stability.

The school required a solution that protected sensitive student data, avoided unnecessary handling, and prevented devices being taken away off-site.

The iRepairMan solution

We delivered a safeguarding-first plan: all repairs were completed within school premises. Each iPad was repaired typically in 30โ€“45 minutes depending on fault type, then tested and returned ready for use.

  • On-site repair workflow (no removal of devices)
  • Structured batch process to keep classroom disruption low
  • Repairs performed carefully and discreetly in a school environment
  • Data preserved wherever technically possible (no unnecessary wiping)

Data protection & safeguarding

For schools โ€” especially SEN settings โ€” data protection is non-negotiable. Our priority is to keep devices secure and learning uninterrupted. Wherever technically possible, we repair without wiping data, meaning devices return ready-to-use without reinstallation or reconfiguration.

  • Data preserved: Yes (where possible)
  • Ready to use: Yes
  • Minimal disruption: Yes
Education matters. We understand that for SEN pupils, iPads can be integral to learning, routine and engagement. Our on-site school repairs are designed to reduce downtime, protect sensitive data, and support staff.
