The school I work at has Chromebooks,   other schools also have 
Chromebooks, I know that other schools probably either use google or 
Microsoft, or maybe Apple.

School budgets are very tight in the UK.

reaching our target audience, once we have a small to medium cohort, 
that is active, it will be much easier to expand on what we are doing.
