Affordability
Affordable classroom technology with a monthly subscription (using a school compliant operating lease) guarantees a lower average cost and gives you the flexibility to build your ideal school bundle, you can even alter it to suit your changing needs.
Smart investment
We know that value is more important than cost and choosing Apple is an affordable and sustainable solution for schools. iPad and Mac have a high residual value – allowing you to recoup costs and to reinvest. An iPad can retain around 20% of it’s original value after four years and that could be as high as 25% for a MacBook Air.
Combine your smart investment with our FirstClass Managed Service for Schools, or with any of our affordability solutions, to give your school complete technical and financial peace of mind.

KRCS are FSA registered and provide finance and insurance services specifically tailored to the needs of UK schools and academies.
An operating lease is the only type of lease agreement that state funded schools (local authority or Academy) can enter into. No other form of finance (such as hire purchase) may be entered into by a school as this is a prohibited form of borrowing, so we ensure that all our lease agreements are fully compliant for education.
