As a part of President Francois Hollande’s digital plan for schools, he has set as a target for all middle school aged kids (‘5eme in France’) to be equipped with a tablet at the start of the 2015\/2016 school year. This would equate to approximately 45k students who would use the tablet to “improve students’ access to information and (by default) improve the quality of course materials”.<\/p>\n

One of the requirements is, of course, that the tablets come from a French manufacturer. Archos is, naturally, well-positioned\u00a0to be chosen as the lucky supplier and, as a result, has announced that starting in 2015 that they would launch a range of tablets designed for middle school aged children<\/a> which would “give them access to digital technology and give them the best chance of succeeding in the career fields of tomorrow.”<\/p>\n

This is not Archos’ first foray into the education sector as they already deliver education solutions to state training agency (CFA), Sciences PO, as well as other universities in France.
