Education

Imagine the possibilities

Give your students the tools to do amazing things

A better connected education

University lectures streamed live over the internet. Access to superfast broadband from as early as primary school. Interactive learning with instant access to teaching resources. This is the classroom of the future and together we can make it happen

Fast, cost-effective access to the internet

Give children the best start with super-fast access from primary right through to secondary school.

You can share your network with other schools in the area or with the local authority to make sure you get the most out of your resources.

It’s something that’s already starting to benefit school children in Hampshire, where 99% of schools have joined HPSN2.

So they can enjoy business-class bandwidth up to 100 Mbits/s while sharing the cost of managing and maintaining the network.

Anywhere, anytime access to the resources they need

Student life isn’t a 9-5 thing. And neither is your network. Give your students access to learning resources wherever they are – whether it’s the library, a lecture theatre, the student union or home.

With a virtual private network (VPN) you can securely link all the sites on your campus onto a single network, giving pupil access to the resources they need, wherever they are.

And when you stream lessons or lectures over the internet, they’ll never miss a thing.

The benefits

A better connected education

A better connected education

From primary right through to University, together we can change the face of education. Find out what you’ll be able to achieve 

Deliver more for less when you share the load

With budgets coming under pressure, you need to find ways to work smarter. With shared services you can share the load to make sure you deliver great services without breaking the budget.

It’s already working in Hampshire, where some 540 schools are now connected to the Hampshire Public Services Network 2 (HPSN2).

The shared infrastructure connects hundreds of local authorities, schools and even the fire service. It means schools there can share the cost of delivering high-speed internet across the network, giving children from primary right through to secondary school access to the resources they need.

Bring your communication costs under control

With voice over IP, you can drastically cut the costs of your communications. It all runs on the core network, so you can give international students access to cheaper calls and you won’t pay for calls between your sites.

Launch innovative new services to improve the learning experience

From interactive whiteboards to WiFi access on University campuses, you can launch new services to help your students excel.

With video conferencing you can take the lecture theatre home with you and with secure virtual private networks (VPNs) you can give students access to key resources wherever they are.

Process clearing requests quickly and efficiently

Take the pain out of your call centre operations with a flexible customer contact centre that lets you effortlessly deal with busy periods like University clearing.

Set up inbound business numbers and prioritise calls so nothing gets missed. It’s all hosted virtually too so you can scale up your requirements to cope with the busy times and scale it back down once it’s all over.

Anytime, anywhere access for your staff

Promote flexible working with a secure VPN that lets your staff access their emails and voicemail wherever they are.

It means they can stay in touch with students wherever they are and with services like video conferencing, it makes organising staff meetings a breeze.
