Megan Townes and Warwick Noble from Abbotsleigh school discuss their experience transitioning to Windows 8. They conducted play, pilot, and implementation phases starting in early 2013. Over 800 devices were upgraded in two months including mandatory upgrades for certain years. Training strategies included information sessions, pop-up help desks, and apps highlighted on their intranet. While the transition was successful overall, some issues included a limited app selection compared to iOS and difficulties for some staff and desktop users adjusting to the new interface.
