Why HP for education

Dependable devices, defended by design

HP builds for reliability, security and manageability, which are the qualities that matter when a device has to work every lesson, every day.

Security built in

HP Wolf Security

Hardware-enforced protection below, in and above the operating system, so pupil and staff data is defended by design, not bolted on.

Built for school life

Tested durability

Education models such as the Fortis range are built and tested to withstand daily classroom handling, including drops and spills, which reduces breakages and repair costs.

Easy to manage

Fleet-ready

Standard support for Windows Autopilot and Microsoft Intune, and Google Admin for Chromebooks, so devices are enrolled, configured and updated at scale.

Responsible by design

Sustainability

Recycled and recovered materials, repairable designs, and take-back and recycling, which support a trust's environmental and social value commitments.

One range, end to end

Entry to workstation

A single, coherent HP range from rugged pupil devices to high-end workstations, so the whole estate is specified and supported consistently.

Ready for what is next

AI-capable PCs

Current HP laptops and desktops, including Copilot-capable AI PCs, so devices bought today have headroom for how teaching and admin tools are changing.

The range at a glance

Three tiers, matched to how devices are used

Entry

Rugged and 1:1

The HP Fortis range, in Windows and Chromebook, purpose-built for education. Examples include the HP Fortis Chromebooks and the rugged convertible HP Pro x360 Fortis. Durable, secure and quick to manage across large fleets.

Mid

Staff and older students

HP ProBook laptops, including the education-hardened HP ProBook Fortis 14, and HP Pro Tower and HP ProOne all-in-one desktops. Business-grade Windows for teachers, admin staff and older students.

High

Power users and technical courses

HP Elite laptops, HP ZBook mobile workstations and HP Z2 desktop workstations, for leadership, demanding software, and creative and vocational curricula.

Why buy HP through Medhurst

The device is the easy part

We specify HP to the requirement, not to a catalogue, and we manage the whole lifecycle so your team does not have to.

Specify and procure

The right device, the compliant route

We match the HP range to how each device will be used, and buy through the frameworks schools and trusts use, including the Government Commercial Agency (GCA), formerly Crown Commercial Service, and the sector ICT frameworks.

Deploy

Imaged, enrolled, labelled

Devices arrive imaged and enrolled through Autopilot, Intune or Google Admin, asset-tagged and ready to hand out, not boxed for your team to build.

Fund

Hardware as a Service

Spread device refresh into a predictable annual cost across the estate, replacing capital peaks with a plan your finance team can budget against.

Support

Warranty and swap-out

Under a Medhurst support contract we handle HP warranty and Care Pack claims and provide swap-out cover, so a broken device does not mean a lost lesson.

Retire

Secure disposal and recycling

End-of-life devices are wiped to standard and recycled responsibly, with the audit trail your data protection and environmental reporting need.

Accountable

One partner for the estate

As part of a managed service, a single, named relationship for devices, network, safeguarding and support, so accountability does not fall between suppliers.

What it means for the school

Technology that supports teaching, not interrupts it

The right device, deployed and supported properly, protects curriculum continuity, keeps pupil and staff data safe, and gives leaders a clear, budgetable plan. That is the outcome we design for, with HP as the device platform underneath it.
