What is the benefit of giving students a department branded calculator?

Today it seems that most young people use the calculator on their mobile phone rather than a calculator that they carry in their pockets.

There are two issues here: one is that the calculators on most phones are rather basic; and the other is that using the phone calculator is an excuse to have the phone switched on.

The alternative is to give one or more groups of students a branded calculator which has the benefit of making a statement that, as a student of this school, you are being treated as an adult and are expected to have a more adult approach to your work.

Such an approach can be initiated with any group at any time. It can be used with sixth formers or it can be used with year 10 students for the start of GCSE maths, or indeed with year 7 students as a statement that maths is about a more serious and adult approach to the subject than at primary school – which can again help to engender a new attitude to studies.

What’s more, parents will see the branded calculator and realise that the school is doing everything to help their son or daughter undertake these new and more advanced courses with contemporary techniques and approaches.

Additionally, given that you can have the school name and phone number on the calculator, then if it is lost there is a fairly good chance that it will be returned to the school.

Image Logo UK Ltd specialises in calculators for school students and has a wide range of different calculators available, all of which can be marked up with any details of the school that you wish.

There is a wide range shown on our website here incorporating not just standard calculators but also calculators built into rulers. Or, if you wish to talk through the different options, please do call us on 0845 758 9536.

Delivery normally takes 15-20 working days from artwork approval, so if you order now we should have the calculators ready for you at the start of the new term for your new intake. But just in case time is tight we do have a wide range of Express items which could be turned around in 5 days (from artwork approval).

If you require any other information or have any questions please do email sales@image-logo.co.uk or call 0845 758 9536.
