CReSED (Cloud-Ready Secure Education Distribution) is a purpose-built, Australian-developed operating system designed specifically for schools. It’s based on Ubuntu Pro — the same secure open-source platform used by universities, research labs, and even NASA — but fully tailored for classrooms. Unlike Windows or macOS, CReSED doesn’t slow down over time, doesn’t push ads, and doesn’t require constant patching or license renewals.
Where other systems are bloated with consumer features, CReSED is lean, focused, and built for learning. You get a complete operating system, curriculum-ready software, and built-in tools for administration, media, coding, and more — all optimised for older hardware that can’t upgrade to Windows 11.
