Can I use an Apple TV 4k with multiple Promethean boards?

I am a teacher and our department recently got brand new Promethean boards in our classrooms. However, I teach from a cart in five different classrooms, so the set-ups all vary and I don't have one single classroom, board, laptop, etc. to use. There is, however, a new Promethean board in each room.

I am considering getting an iPad and an Apple TV 4k (the boards are 4k screens) to bring around to my classrooms so I can just plug the Apple TV into the board's HDMI port then take it with me to my next class.

I am not trying to connect to multiple screens at once, just want to make sure that a) the Apple TV 4K is compatible with Promethean Boards and b) it does not have to be exclusively used with one screen.

a) the Apple TV 4K is compatible with Promethean Boards, and
b) it does not have to be exclusively used with one screen.

a) Unknown, unless you come across someone that has tried it. If it supports HDMI devices such as DVD players, then Apple TV will likely* also work. You may want to inquire with Promethean, to see if they have an answer.

b) No exclusivity. Connect to any compatible screen that you want.
