It is very important and expected that students have covers for their iPads. iPad covers come in many styles and levels of functionality and protection. It would be advisable to have a cover with the following properties:
Some examples of the more robust covers with keyboards:

Many general office and electronic supply stores will also supply these covers.
Whilst the College cannot guarantee the protection of the iPad, these types of cases may assist.
NOTE: iPad bags and satchels are also available at the College Uniform Shop
Protective film on the iPad screen can protect it from scratches and this is an option that you may wish to consider.
