Challenge:
Northbourne Park had an aging IT architecture. There were increasing cyber security risks, a slow network and teachers regularly requesting assistance from the IT team for routine tasks. The outdated IT systems could no longer support the aims of Northbourne’s leadership team to continue to provide the high quality of education they required.
Northbourne park’s leadership team recognised the need to modernise their network. The longer-term objective was to migrate Northbourne Park to cloud computing.
ADM Computing Education team and Northbourne Park’s leadership developed a 3 -year business plan so they could continue supporting the high level of education and care for the pupils.
Solution:
ADM installed elements of the Microsoft 365 suite, a storage area network and virtual infrastructure, along with a managed switch network. ADM improved delivery of internet connections to the sites.
ADM improved cyber-security; This included SOPHOS anti-virus, improved gateway security using a WatchGuard solution and increased browsing protection using OPEN-DNS.
ADM assisted Northbourne Park in adopting cloud-based technology. This included the use of Microsoft Teams FOR EDUCATION, enabling remote collaboration for staff and pupils.
Northbourne Park’s IT systems were prepared so the school continued to deliver high standards of Education at the start of the Covid-19 crisis and are all set for the future.
