This focus reflects new findings from an October 2025 ASUS SEND research initiative, which revealed that reliability is the number-one priority for teachers when selecting devices for SEND students – with 63% of respondents highlighting consistent, everyday performance as a key requirement.
The new portfolio is headlined by the ASUS Chromebook CZ12/CZ11 series, engineered to deliver durability, accessibility and easy manageability. Joining them are the ASUS Chromebook CL32 Detachable, designed for flexible learning styles; and the AI-enhanced ASUS Chromebook CL14/CL15series, which helps educators streamline workflows and personalise support.
Commenting on the collaboration behind the new Chromebook series, Vince Hu, Corporate Vice President & General Manager of Data Center & Computing Business Group at MediaTek, said:
“Digital learning is rapidly evolving, and students and teachers need solutions that keep pace with their changing workflows and demands. We’re working closely with ASUS to redefine what’s possible on Chromebook devices and equip classrooms around the world with the best technology available.”Together, these devices form part of a complete ASUS education-focused ecosystem that enables schools to build resilient, connected and inclusive learning environments for students, teachers and IT teams.
ASUS Chromebook CZ12/CZ11 series
At the core of the new ASUS Chromebook CZ12/CZ11 series is durability – each model meets exacting MIL-STD-810H durability standards and incorporates optional tough Corning® Gorilla® Glass, reinforced I/O ports and spill-resistant keyboards to withstand the demands of daily school use. The 16:10 displays are TÜV Rheinland-certified to reduce blue-light exposure, and ASUS Antimicrobial Guard helps maintain a cleaner, safer surface during shared classroom use.
Designed for a wide mix of learning needs and environments, the lineup offers 180° lay-flat or 360°-flippable hinges, 11.6-inch or 12.2-inch touchscreens, an optional garaged stylus for precise input, plus a 5MP world-facing camera that supports hands-on activities. With up to WiFi 7 and optional 4G LTE or the option for 5G connectivity, learning continuity is empowered both on and off campus.
Maintenance is streamlined through a modular internal design, anti-drop captive screws and easy-access components, reducing repair time and minimising disruption for school IT teams. Performance is tailored for dependable all-day use: the Chromebook CZ models integrate MediaTek Kompanio platforms and long-lasting batteries to deliver smooth multitasking and sustained learning throughout the school day. With intuitive AI-driven tools such as Google Workspace and robust device-management capabilities, the series enables students to learn more effectively, all whilst minimising IT administration.
