ITS

What our customers say

Several of the teaching staff approached IT with issues regarding being able to demo tutorials and control the class computer access. After a lot of research on the various platforms available we found LanSchool met our needs perfectly

Mr Ian Dawson, Head of IT, The Fashion Retail Academy, London, UK.

We had used LanSchool on a small scale before our rebuild and ICT refresh in 2012 and had found it easy to use and teacher friendly. The appointed IT partner for our BSF project provided another tool for monitoring but it just didn’t cut the mustard – so we returned to LanSchool in 2014. Quickly installed it has been welcomed by full time IT teachers as well as a range of other staff in rooms with PC suites. It hasn’t generated any calls to our IT log and has been very reliable. The ability to monitor and when necessary support students, in real time, has been a great benefit. We have yet to roll out coverage for our iPads but are looking forward to doing so.

Mr Chris Carr, Assistant Head Teacher, ICT Strategy, The Cardinal Wiseman Catholic School, Greenford, UK.

We have used LanSchool for the last three years and think it is brilliant and easy to use. Teachers can log all computers on and have the programme they want the children to use displayed on the screen ready to start their lesson as they arrive. Having the option to control all screens means that teachers are able to model lessons and can broadcast individual screens to the rest of the class to demonstrate good examples of work. Being able to blank screens also means children are paying attention and ready to start work, not fiddling with a mouse!
