A projector with an interactive whiteboard has been the standard classroom display solution for schools for the last 10 years

A classroom projector in conjunction with an interactive whiteboard such as a SmartBoard is used in the majority of UK classrooms. Whether it’s standard throw ceiling mounted, ultra-short throw, lampless or interactive, SignalmanAV have vast experience specifying, maintaining and installing classroom projectors in a vast range of educational facilities.

The available range of projector brands, technologies and mounting options can seem mind boggling – so which is the best choice for your school? 

DLP or LCD? Or what about a lampless or an interactive projector? How do different brands of projectors vary in performance?

Do you need widescreen (WXGA) to match your PC/laptop resolution or 4:3 to match your interactive whiteboard? Does a projector need to be controlled on the school network or have separate control via RS232C? Can wireless projectors be beneficial?

Please try and avoid buying a projector before you seek professional advice! Considering the brand, the technology, the brightness, the warranty and the whole-life cost, we can support you in making the best decision. 

The 2007 Schools’ Whiteboard Expansion Programme saw a huge rise in the use of projectors, and tens of thousands of these original projectors remain in use – out of warranty and requiring ongoing maintenance. Even lamp replacements decline in brightness over time, reaching just 50% of their original brightness at the end of their stated lifetime.
