It support for send settings
Technology that helps a young person do more for themselves.
The same faces every visit, because consistency matters here more than anywhere. We make sure what sits underneath works every single time, and we tell you what’s coming before you need to ask.
Trusted by SEND schools
across the UK.
WHAT SEND SETTINGS TELL US
The outcome you’re working towards isn’t a grade.
It’s a young person communicating a choice, or managing something on their own that they couldn’t manage last year.
Technology is part of how that happens. A device configured around one pupil’s needs. A switch that works every single time. An app a family can use at home as well as here.
When it doesn’t work, it isn’t an inconvenience. It’s a young person without their voice for the day.
So we set it up properly, and we don’t hand you a standard build.
What that looks like in practice
Not what we promise. What you can hold us to.
01
The same faces, every visit.
Enhanced DBS checked and familiar with your school, they get to know your staff, your site and how things work, from the panel that plays up to the awkward cupboard and who to find in the office.
02
You can see what we can see.
We put software on your network for a month. It finds every device you own, with its age, warranty and condition, and lands it in inACT as red, amber or green against each DfE standard. You’ll know what replacing the laptops costs without anyone counting them by hand.
03
We bring you what’s next.
A monthly webinar, plain-English briefings, and a call whenever you want one. What actually matters for a primary, and what you can safely ignore.
You shouldn’t have to
keep up on your own.
AI in the classroom, and what to do about it in a school of a thousand. Cyber threats that change every term. What the schools you’re compared against are already doing. We track it, and we hand it to you in plain English.
What we do
Connectivity
Technology should feel effortless. Teachers should not have to think about Wi-Fi bandwidth or network performance. They should be able to focus on teaching. We provide the connectivity foundations that allow learning, collaboration and school operations to run smoothly every day.
- Reliable Wi-Fi across your estate
- Broadband and telephony you can depend on
- Secure networks built for resilience
Security, safeguarding & resilience
Schools rely on technology more than ever, making security and safeguarding essential to everyday operations. We help schools create secure, resilient environments that protect pupils, support staff and provide confidence that systems, data and services are safe.
- Safeguarding controls that protect pupils online
- Security and identity management that keeps data safe
- Backup and recovery designed for rapid restoration
Teaching & learning technology
The right technology should enhance teaching and learning, not create barriers to it. Every solution should be intuitive, reliable and designed around the needs of staff and pupils. We support schools to select, deploy and maintain technology that drives meaningful educational outcomes.
- Classroom technology that enhances teaching and learning
- Devices and platforms that are simple to use and manage
- Integrated systems that save time and reduce complexity
Modern workplace
Teachers and support staff need technology that helps them work efficiently, collaborate effectively and focus on what matters most. We assist schools in getting more from Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, optimising platforms, licensing and processes to improve productivity.
- Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace configured for success
- Licensing, printing and platforms kept under control
- AI and automation that save staff time
IT management & support
The best IT support solves problems before they affect teaching and learning. It combines day-to-day assistance with proactive management, clear accountability and a roadmap for the future. We work as an extension of your team, helping you maintain a stable environment today while planning confidently for tomorrow.
- Support from people who know your school
- Proactive management that reduces disruption
- Strategic planning that supports long-term goals
FAQs
The questions SEND leads and business managers ask us most often.
Do you understand assistive technology, or just IT?
Both, and we’re clear about where the line sits. We make sure the networks, devices and infrastructure underneath assistive technology are reliable, secure and properly managed, and we work with your specialists and therapists on the choices that are specific to a pupil. We won’t pretend to be clinicians.
Our pupils don’t cope well with things changing unexpectedly. How do you handle that?
We plan around it. Changes are scheduled with you, staged where we can, and rolled out with your staff rather than at them. We would rather delay a rollout by a term than drop something unfamiliar on a class without warning.
Can families use the same technology at home?
Often, and it’s usually worth doing. We can help you work out what’s practical to extend beyond the setting, what it costs, and what support families would need for it to actually get used.
What does it cost?
It depends on the size of the school and how much you want us to look after. Rather than quote a number that turns out to be wrong, we’d rather come and look first. The discovery session is free and there’s no obligation attached to it.
Do the DfE Digital and Technology Standards apply to us?
Yes. Six core standards to meet by 2030, and the cyber security one applies to every school and college. We run a gap analysis against all six and give you a prioritised remediation roadmap, costed and staged across five years so it sits in the budget rather than landing all at once.
Still have questions?
Talk to us directly and get the answer you need.
Where do you want the school to be in five years?
Start there.
We’ll tell you what it takes to get there, and what isn’t worth doing.
