    What is technical support?

    Our Technical Support service is designed to take care of all your school's IT essentials, so that you don’t have to think about it. From server and infrastructure monitoring, to helping your staff with day-to-day technical issues- we will cover it all. 

    Why do we need technical support?

    Schools have unique challenges when it comes to IT: administration functions, people working at their desks, familiar PC’s and relatively standard working arrangements, are just the tip of the iceberg. 

    Teaching areas on the other hand, can have an entirely different workflow, shared devices in classrooms and IT suites (be they mobile or fixed), specialist software and hardware, and on top of that, students. 

    Ensuring your staff are supported by their technology is the most important part about having technology in your school. Because computers don’t support your school, they support your staff in doing so effectively.
