Computer Systems in Education (CSE) has today, 11.11.14 launched the Magellan mobile app, the very latest development for the groundbreaking Magellan universal education portal which provides fast, seamless and secure access to a school’s server from mobile devices.
“Historically schools have been held back by the limited access and options presented by iPads and smart phone,” explains CSE MD, Gordon Derham.

“With Magellan, however, virtually any file or document, in any program, can be viewed, worked on, and re-saved to the system from any gadget. This enables teachers and students to use their own devices to access multi-programme teaching and learning tools, and without compromising security. Our new Magellan app will make such access easier still.”
Gordon Derham believes schools that have invested heavily in tablet technology and use the Magellan portal will welcome this latest development. Recent Magellan customer, Data and E Learning Manager Sharn Somerton-Davies from Brentside High School comments:
“The amount of planning and administrative work teachers have to do is a well documented. But the flexibility to access programmes previously unavailable through their own smart phones and tablets will certainly enable greater efficiencies.”
The Magellan Mobile app is available now to download from the Apple and Andoid stores. Magellan is available from CSE-net.co.uk.
