Interwrite / E-Instruction pens

[SteveB_NI]

With new procedures in place we're limiting sharing of resources where possible, so have encouraged staff to use their own Interwrite / E-Instruction pen...

 

Only thing is, we don't have enough to go round!

 

I know the Interwrite boards are discontinued, but does anyone recommend a source for the pens / chargers, or indeed does any school have spare pens (even the original large type) who would be willing to sell them to us?

Went through similar ourselves back in 2016 with our whiteboards mate.

 

Will try to give more details when I get 5x mins but try these.

This will hopefully save you the many MANY hours I tried researching these from 2013 until 2016 to get replacements.

Thanks I knew I'd seen that page before somewhere! £50 per pen & then needs a charger at a further £50!! Ouch.

 

I think they can share as before and wipe their pens down rather than pay that lol! Unless our current stock break that will be a last resort.

If you've got time I'm happy to have a call/Teams call about my experience with them mate if you want?

 

We spent about £2.5K back in 2016 on replacement kit getting all our Interwrite boards working and they were about £250 a kit as they supplied it all in a kit back then.

 

It finally got enough attention in 2016, that none of them had worked since before I started in 2013 to give us enough time, focus and budget to get it all sorted which we did. I was quite pleased with the outcome.

Whether they actually used the tech afterwards, was up to the teachers and SLT.
