Accessing your school’s data securely through the internet, even when you are at home or travelling, is very empowering. You no longer have to remember to copy those lesson plans onto a mobile storage device or your laptop to take them home; just access them as and when you need to.
We are able to supply a wide range of new and used equipment at discounted prices. For example, desktop PCs, laptops, tablets, interactive whiteboards, servers and AV equipment.
Even used equipment is often available with warranty periods of up to three years, providing you with peace of mind in addition to the substantial initial cost savings.
Many schools are also moving away from traditional computer labs, where the technology is segregated from everyday learning, in favour of mobile devices in classrooms. The availability and low cost of tablet devices open a new world of possibilities for teaching in a new way. Let us help you harness these technologies and put you in control.
Cyber threats don’t care where you’re based and neither do we. From ransomware prevention to user access controls, we provide layered cybersecurity tailored to schools in Bristol, Cardiff and South West England. We also help ensure compliance with data protection and industry regulations.
Your school doesn’t stop after hours and neither does our support. We offer 24/7 engineering cover and proactive system monitoring to ensure critical issues are handled before they become problems – no matter when or where they arise.
Are you not sure what to do to achieve a goal or solve a problem? We can advise you on what technology could be employed to help you, but without blinding you with terminology. Just by examining your systems and the way you run your school, we can often make recommendations for improvements that you may not have spotted yourself.
Have any questions? We are always open to talking about your specific educational IT support needs.
