In our public primary school every pupil gets an iPad starting 3rd grade, with a +Microsoft 365 account+ so they can "get used to the applications that are prevalent in business". Good job, getting 8 years old kids hooked on Office products, paid by the public.

All iPads are replaced every 3 years because "they degrade in performance" to make sure "pupils have always a device with peak performance". Good job, getting 8 year old kids used to "e-waste is nothing we need to care about".

I can only shake my head in disbelief, to say the least.
