Depts of Education across Australia use C-Pens


Primary and secondary schools across Australia use our C-Pen Reader 2 or Exam Reader 2 smart pens. The pens are useful in three main areas:

  • For students with reading difficulties such as dyslexia, autism, ADHD, FASD, processing & working memory issues etc
  • For those with a low reading or literacy level or
  • For EAL students whose first language is not English

The pens enable users to read independently – boosting self-confidence and reducing stress & reading anxiety.


Most Depts of Educations have resource units or resource libraries which showcase assistive technology, including C-Pens. Scanning Pens works closely with these units and ensure that they have the latest pens to lend out to schools and teachers.

South Australia - SIES

Statewide Inclusive Education Services (SIES) is a corporate unit of the South Australian Department for Education, within the directorate of Inclusive Teaching and Learning. SIES provides support to departmental schools and personnel, as well as parents & carers, to enhance the learning outcomes of children and students with disabilities and learning difficulties.

The following video showcases SIES, their aims and objectives as well as their Assistive Technology Loan Library.

A boost to your school’s outcomes


Traditional testing can be an obstacle for neurodivergent learners. Adding a reading pen to their toolbox of learning support has been proven to give students a new level of reading confidence that helps them reach their potential.

We offer schools free trials for each of our devices, so you can see how effective they are for yourself.

Saving budgets while supporting minds

Something we hear from educators all the time is how far they need to stretch the funding from their Department for Education. School boards might feel as if they’re tightening their belts every year, so finding an affordable solution for your students’ reading needs is essential.
