Hello everyone,

I'm currently developing an iOS application as part of a project for a high school in France. The goal of the app is to raise students' awareness about their use of digital tools, especially by helping them better understand their screen time and how they use the iPads provided by the school.

This app is intended for internal use only: it is not meant to be published on the App Store, but rather distributed through Apple School Manager to the school’s managed devices.

I would like to ask: Which type of Apple Developer license would be the most appropriate for this use case?

Should we go with an individual or enterprise account? Or is there a specific program for educational institutions? Thank you in advance for any advice or feedback you can share

Have a great day!

Just to add some context:

All Apple accounts used by the school are federated with Microsoft. The iPads are managed through Apple School Manager, and assigned to students and staff via these federated accounts. We use JAMF School as our MDM (Mobile Device Management) solution to manage the devices. I’m not sure if these elements affect the type of license or distribution method we should choose, but I thought they were important to mention.

Thanks again for your help!
