In the recent decade, particularly over the last few years, developments in making research-grade telescope technology available to the classroom at little to no cost have been rapid. With the growth of the Las Cumbres Observatory, SkyNET and iTelescope networks, as well as a host of smaller networks, the possibilities for schools anywhere around the globe to utilise real data in their classroom has become viable. In this talk, the current state of robotic telescopes in education is outlined as well as a variety of success stories, possibilities for potential users and current problems being tackled by the field.
