Interactive Flat Panel Installation in Riyadh — A School Case Study
When a leading private school in Riyadh decided to retire its aging projectors, the brief was simple. Teachers wanted screens bright enough for daytime lessons, easy enough to use without calling IT, and tough enough to run all day. Here’s how boardEX handled the full rollout, from the first site visit to teacher training, and what actually changed in the classrooms once it was done.
Fading projectors were costing the school lesson time
The projectors were fading, and teachers were losing lesson time to set up and troubleshoot. In sun-facing rooms, glare made the screen hard to read. There was also no simple way to write on the screen, save it, or share it. The school needed one local supplier to handle everything, with a system that worked in both Arabic and English and fit the classrooms they already had.
Glare in sun-facing rooms
In bright, sun-facing classrooms the projector image washed out, making the screen hard to read during the day.
Lesson time lost to setup
Warm-up, cables and troubleshooting ate into every lesson — and ageing bulbs were an ongoing maintenance cost.
No way to write, save or share
There was no simple way to annotate on screen, save the board, or share it with students after class.
boardEX products used — one standard setup, campus-wide
boardEX started with a site survey, checking room sizes and where students sat. From there, the team built a standard setup that the whole school could use. The classrooms were fitted with interactive flat panel displays sized for the space.
86″ 4K UHD interactive panels
40-point touch + dual-tip pen
Natural writing and group work at the board.
Readable from the back row
Sized so students at the back read clearly — no glare.
Arabic-first interface
A real plus for teachers and admin staff alike.
Wall-mounted, wireless, ready to teach
Tidy wall mounts + cable runs
Each panel mounted cleanly with concealed cabling.
Wireless screen sharing + whiteboard
Built-in tools so teachers could start straight away.
Rolling stands where needed
Flexible rooms got a mobile stand instead of a fixed mount.
Survey → recommendation → quote → install → train → support
The team worked around the school timetable so lessons weren’t disrupted, mounting and testing the panels one room at a time.
Site survey
boardEX checked room sizes and sightlines — where students actually sit — before recommending anything.
Recommendation
One standard setup the whole school could use, with 86″ panels chosen for clear reading from the back row.
Written quotation
A clear quote covering panels, mounts, accessories and installation — no hidden fees added later.
Professional installation
Panels mounted and tested room by room, scheduled around the timetable so no lessons were disrupted.
Hands-on teacher training
Annotation, screen sharing and saving lessons — the part that decides whether classroom tech gets used or gathers dust.
Ongoing support
One Riyadh contact for day-to-day technical help after go-live, tracked through a ticket system.
Results & Feedback
Lessons start faster, and the daytime glare problem is gone
Lessons start faster
More student participation
Daytime readability fixed
Bright, anti-glare screens solved the problem that started the project.
A recurring cost removed
Dropping projector bulbs off the maintenance list cuts an ongoing expense.

Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on how many rooms are involved. A handful of classrooms can be done in a day or two, while a full-campus rollout is staged room by room so lessons aren’t disrupted. boardEX works around your timetable and confirms a schedule once the site survey and quote are signed off.
For most classrooms, an 86” 4K panel hits the sweet spot, big enough for students at the back to read comfortably without glare. Larger lecture halls sometimes move up to 98”. The right size is confirmed during the survey, based on room depth and where students sit.
Yes. The interface is Arabic-first with full bilingual Arabic and English support, which is why it suits MOE schools and bilingual private schools across Riyadh. Teachers and admin staff can work in whichever language they prefer.
Always. Every rollout includes hands-on training so teachers are comfortable with annotation, wireless screen sharing, and saving lessons. Training is usually what decides whether classroom tech gets used daily or left switched off, so boardEX treats it as part of the job, not an extra.
Panels are covered by warranty and backed by nationwide after-sales support, with a local contact in Riyadh for setup, training, and ongoing assistance. If something needs attention, you reach the same team that handled the install rather than chasing a call centre.
Yes, and that’s the usual approach. The team mounts and tests one room at a time, scheduling around lessons and using quieter periods or breaks where possible, so teaching continues while the rollout moves through the building.
