An active stylus with a 1.9mm fine tip, rechargeable and pressure-free — it draws a consistent line regardless of how hard a student presses. For handwriting and sketching where a rubber-tipped passive stylus feels vague, this is the step up. What it does: Fine 1.9mm active tip Rechargeable, no batteries to replace Works across iPad, Android and Windows touchscreens Black or silver Where it fits: senior art and design, note-taking on tablets, and annotation work where precision matters. Replacement nibs and chargers are available separately — worth stocking both if you're issuing a class set. Not an Apple Pencil. No pressure sensitivity or palm rejection, which the Pencil has and this doesn't. It works across every platform, though, and costs a third as much. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.

Magnetic active styluses that clip to the side of a tablet the way an Apple Pencil does — which is the single biggest factor in whether a stylus is still with the device at the end of term. Choose your platform: Neo — for iPad. Magnetically attaches to the side of compatible models. Neo Ink — for Windows devices including Surface, using Microsoft Pen Protocol. Why magnetic attachment matters in a school. A stylus in a pencil case gets lost; a stylus stuck to the tablet comes back with the tablet. If you're issuing styluses with a class set, this is the feature that determines how many you're replacing next year. Check compatibility before ordering — Neo works with iPad models that support side attachment, and Neo Ink needs a Windows device with pen support. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.

Two precision styluses that need no battery, no pairing and no charging — which for a shared class set is the whole argument. Nothing to go flat, nothing to configure, works the moment a student picks it up. Choose your model: SE 2 — the newer design, in black or white Pro 4 — the precision disc model, in black or silver Where these fit: annotation, maths working, diagrams and drawing on any touchscreen. Both work across iPad, Android and Windows, so a mixed fleet doesn't need two products. Passive or active? Passive styluses like these are cheaper, need no charging and never stop working mid-lesson. Active styluses such as the Dash 4 and Neo give a finer line and a more natural feel, at roughly twice the price and with a battery to keep charged. For a class set, passive usually wins.
