How We Support Education Providers With Practical IT Solutions

10 January 2023

In recent years, technology has transformed the field of education. Online learning and teaching tools have increased access to education, and changed the way students engage with the curriculum. However, these technologies have also presented new challenges for school systems and educators. ICT Solutions understands that teachers and school leaders require tailored solutions that accommodate the ever-changing needs of their students. As educators take on an ever-increasing workload, it is imperative that your technology empower your staff – not hold them back.

ICT Solutions has worked with schools for many years, so we know that educators have a unique set of needs when it comes to IT services and support. We work with you to craft an IT strategy that is robust, flexible, and cost-effective.

Our IT services for educators include:

Procurement

With so many tech platforms and tools out there, it can be difficult to know which ones will suit your needs. ICT Solutions will offer advice and acquire exactly the hardware and software you need at discounted prices.

Cloud Solutions

In the age of the connected classroom, you need to be able to access your materials easily and from anywhere. ICT will implement UK-based cloud solutions, giving you access to all your files, documents and emails from any location. Cloud-based solutions are flexible and agile, and they cut down on infrastructure costs. When everyone in your organisation has access to the files they need, you can truly foster a collaborative, efficient, and productive environment.

Network Security

We know that security of student data and school information is crucial. We will ensure that your access, and the storage of your data, is secure at all times. We offer state of the art cyber security solutions from advanced firewalls to ransomware detection and real-time monitoring to keep your data safe. Our approach is to build a security strategy that is unique to your institution and the types of threats you may be most exposed to.

IT support 24/7

Teachers perform one of the most important functions in our society: supporting, guiding, and inspiring young people, and preparing them for the future. The last thing your teachers need is to waste precious time and energy struggling with tech issues. If you have any kind of problem or question, you can call us at any time of the day or night, on any day of the week. No problem is too small – or too big!

Backup and Recovery

IT for schools has to be reliable. Not to worry – with ICT, there is always a backup plan. Should your system fail (it does happen), we can get you up and running again with full data recovery.

Mobile Devices

Today, work doesn’t always stay in the physical workplace. Rest assured that when your IT leaves the office, it takes our protection with it.  Mobile devices such as tablets and phones are all covered by ICT Solutions, so you can enjoy the same level of security no matter where you are.

Managed Print Services

From class materials to formal reports and so much more, document creation and printing is central to a day in the life of an educator. Problems with print and document production can be a significant distraction and source of inefficiency. Our managed print service puts you back in control.

ICT Solutions also offers wireless network implementation, Microsoft 365 integration, and more. Our experts will work with you to understand your needs and design a plan that makes sense for you and your school community.

IT Services for the Education Sector

The technology needs of a school are not the same as a small business, large corporation, or a government agency. Even among education institutions, there is a great degree of variety; the needs of a primary school will be vastly different from a university. When it comes to IT, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. 

ICT Solutions works with educators to craft a bespoke technology infrastructure that works for you, so you get exactly what you need, and you don’t pay for anything superfluous.
