However, how you actually get your discount varies depending on where you are located.

All you have to do is visit the Apple Store for Education and then verify your credentials – how easy is that? The Apple student discounts are available for pretty much anyone in the education industry, like teachers, education workers, parents, school board members and PTA members. We know it's hard to believe, but you don't have to be a student to get a discount. You can even get the student discount if you are a PTA or PTO (parent-teacher association or organisation). To claim your discount, you'll need to provide documents that prove where you work. Members of staff (from teachers to administration) working at colleges, sixth forms or universities (both public and private) can also get some Apple savings.

So you're not a student or a parent, but you are working in education, which means you also qualify for the Apple Student discount. It's important to remember that you can not claim the discount if you are buying for yourself though.

That's right, if you are a parent or guardian of a student eligible for the deal, then you can also save money when purchasing an Apple product on behalf of your child. Surprisingly enough, it's not just students who are eligible for the discount. To qualify for the Apple student discount, you need to be 16 or older and enrolled in further/higher education, like college or university, with a valid student ID to prove it – easy, right? The Apple student discount is available as soon as you enrol on your sixth form, college or university course.
