How We Support Secondary Schools
For secondary schools, we offer a host of convenient solutions you won’t want to pass up.
While some schools are keen to see us become their on-site IT department, thanks to a member of our team being based on your premises full-time, other educational settings prefer a ‘pick and mix’ approach to IT services.
Let’s chat about how we can make your life easier by assigning a member of staff to your school from day one. Alternatively, we offer a handy takeover service, too, whereby your school has in-house staff that we can liaise with going forward. A fully-inclusive solution for you and your school, it removes the burden of training requirements, staff cover and, more importantly, high costs.
For schools with their own IT department, our higher-level consultancy and support service may be for you. Chat to us about how we can help with everything from IT strategy planning to IT systems and cyber security audits.
Your Point of Contact for All Things IT
Alongside our consultancy service, we also provide third line/advanced technical support to assist your in-house teams with any IT issues that come their way.
Giving you all the assurance you need that your IT needs are covered, we can also provide holiday and sickness cover, technology reviews and equipment audits – and we’ve been supporting secondary schools like yours since 1998.
Offering support to your existing workforce, ensuring they can confidently do their job with minimal distractions, we’re on hand to ensure a smooth and seamless service to all.
Broadband & VoIP

With high bandwidth connections available – up to 10Gbs – we also offer managed firewalls.
Partnering with all the major carriers and providing flexible, cost-effective solutions which are tailored to you, our connections are backed with market-leading service level agreement response times (SLA), and we can also offer backup connections for critical applications.
Connections can be supplied unfiltered or protected with content filtering, making our service ideal for schools and putting safeguarding first. Work with us and you can benefit from friendly, helpful advice which cuts through the jargon and ensures a fit-for-purpose solution.
We also offer VoIP telephony systems and provide cloud-based phone systems, as well as a free-of- charge audit of your existing connectivity solutions.

Online cloud backups are a priority of ours, too, ensuring critical on-site data is always automatically saved.
