Not at school, but still attending class? That's Bednet!  


Bednet

What is Bednet?

Is your child often or for a longer time unable to attend school? Bednet allows your child to attend lessons online, as if they were actually in the classroom.

A Bednet-set is installed in the classroom. Your child has a laptop at home and can remotely move the camera in the classroom, zoom in and out, they can raise their hand and so much more!

Best of all? Bednet is completely free of charge
